I am now working on painting the walls on 4th floor. Here are some of the ideas I have. Please feel free to give any comment because I have no idea what you guys think. Any suggestions, concerns, questions, or even complaints are welcome.
Since the 4th floor is all about science, so, I thought it would be appropriate to have things that are scientific related. The first idea is "evolution".For some reason that picture did not show up well... Anyway, the idea is to have simple circles, squares, and rectangular shapes in the beginning, then they all slowly change into different creatures. The "hard" part is the end, because, believe it or not, evolution hasn't ended. So, Mr.Loken and I came up with two different "solutions" One is to have all(or the most. Of course, it's not possible for me to have "all", literally.) the species we have, today, to race at the final point. The other idea is to have the present time before reaching to the end of the wall, and have it transfers into a bunch of question marks to represent that "we don't know what is going to happen next." See example below.
The other idea is something very creative. It slightly relates to the theme, science, but not exactly ties into it like the evolution idea does. I call this idea "movie posters" What I am going to do is to create science related movies' posters. Getting confused? Well, have you ever seen those movie posters made AFTER the Oscar award? They not only have the pictures of the movies but also include what kind of award and comments they had got.Trust me, this one is way cooler than evolution.
Thanks a lot for reading through all these.
Once again, feel free to say anything. I can see your name anyway.
Joking.

How about taking from all three to do the following:
First start with fish and then crawling out of the water and becoming MAN (like in photo 2) and then moving toward ? marks like in photo 3?
Mr. Moreau
hey eugg i have a question.
are you gonna put some colors on it or just leave it in white color?
Yep, there's gonna be colors.
Thanks for the suggestion, Mr.Moreau = w =
I am so excited that you are going to do this! It will be a great addition to the school! I like the first one, and agree with Mr. M. that you could do some kind of combo with the first one turning into question marks at the end. Personally, I think your 3rd picture looks like an explosion, which looks like violence, and I am pretty much a pacifist, so I would not want to think of violence every time I walk by. Just my opinion... Can't wait to see the final product!
I think the idea were good
I have a Question what will painting's style going to be?
Ancient ???
or graffiti
or oil paint ( this one is a bad example)...etc
I would prefer the ancient..（mural )...style of painting ...
i like the global warming one.
it can also be a constant reminder.
when people pass it, it will remind people about the current situation we are in.
:D good job!
sorry I think i need to clarify my comment
would the evolution part be the mural style ?
and what would the nuclear bomb idea style be ?
Yea, I also have thought that the atomic bomb and all that part could be pretty violent. The reason why I am going it is simply because that is what the reality is like. I thought it could send more awareness to the people like that. However, since it is going to be seen by everyone that walks pass through that floor...so I'm still struggling whether people would think it's crossing the line. Right now I'm considering making the bomb part smaller, so the "violence" wouldn't stand out more than the "awareness" does :)
To Kevin, I'm thinking of having both oil and graffiti combined. It's going to be pretty unique. The posters ones will be more "realistic" and "cartoonish" in a way.
Thanks for the comments!!
why does that have to be a bomb??
why cant it have to do with global warming??
i mean.. it's good to know whenever people pass they will think about it..
i eman yea.. we sometimes do "remember" about global warming,
but isnt it nice to have a piactue that reminds you constantly of global warming ???
what you think??
why does it HAVE to be a bomb??
y do you always have to draw killin and all that kinda stuff.
why cant you draw things like globl warming, flowers, angles..
you know what i mean...
To answer Koko's question/comment/concern:
1) Global Warming is not the ONLY problem. People's greed creates hate, hate causes wars, and wars produce unnecessary chemicals. The mural has nothing to do with what we have learned in class this year. It's focusing on "evolution" and the human part is basically the summary of what we have done that is not right.
2) Atomic bomb is one of the biggest and most harmful inventions.
Just like Ms.Gruber, I am a pacifist myself, but I thought it is very important to have atomic bomb there because it represents a lot of things at the same time. I'm now considering of coming up with a replacement though.
