Craig Drennen

I really enjoyed Craig Drennen's lecture on painting. It made me think of styles of painting like fashion trends.  Trends will die off and wont be popular anymore once new ones begin, but eventually the older trends may come back and be popular again.  It seemed like some of the styles of paintings will die of and new ones will begin. I also found it interesting that other styles of art have tried to become like painting and create anything imaginable. With all the new technology, photographs and videos can be altered to create new ideas/change the reality. I also liked how he took something simple like the list of character names in the play and used it to create paintings for a project.
