{Trouble at the Memphis Zoo}

So after careful review, I decided to make a few changes to my earlier composition.  It didn't feel like the figure was stable, and a bit awkward just floating about like that. Plus I didn't care for the speech bubble either. I think this is a much better solution.

{Trouble at the Memphis Zoo}

Example of Political Satire {local issues : Memphis, TN} This composition uses the image of a buffoonish totalitarian leader {Napoleon} who is reborn in the shape of a hackster zoo administrator whose greatest accomplishment is the clear-cutting of an ancient forest, which was protected by a Supreme Court ruling.

Nora creates some pretty interesting stuff. I really like her color choices. The palette is so refined and works very well with her overall pieces. Some of her animations are pretty cool too.
