El Dorado

On Sept. 4th our DTC356 class went down to the art museum and found one piece that greatly interested us and we made up a story on that specific piece. I picked the piece labeled, "El Dorado" because I come from a Texas family background and it's the one that I felt like I can relate to the most. Although all the pieces were amazing, I felt like this piece really stuck out to me the most. I'm sure a person that is just coming on to the piece can make up any story to go with it, but I understood it as the artist was most likely coming from a field worker/owner background, and it was a piece that reminded him of his history. I really liked how well it was done and the story that was untold behind it.
