During the 4 week drawing project, we got another brief.  This one was optional but I wanted to do it anyway!  It was based on the various symbols of the Mount Saint Lawrence graveyard in Limerick.  I picked rock as a symbol as rock seemed like the most obvious choice.  Its everywhere, the tombstones, the church the ground etc.  I read about rock being a symbol in a book belonging to Alan Crowley in the library.  It said that rock represented God for obvious reasons, its makes up most of the planet so its also a symbol for being a creator.  Since rock has been around since the dawn of time, its a symbol for eternity.  Rock symbolizes multiple other things but they're the 3 main reasons I went with.

I also thought the rock would be cocky and full of itself if it was capable of human speech.  So I personified it as I wanted to add a humorous twist to the project.  I worded the print to make it sound like its accusing the viewer of being inferior and lazy.  The print is a lithograph because I thought it would be clever to include rock in the formation of an image of a rock.  Here's the editions!
