    Who is a hero? “A hero can be anyone even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a little boy’s shoulder to let him know the world hadn’t ended‚”(Nolan‚ C.‚ 2012). A hero may come in many forms. To some it may be a sibling‚ a friend‚ or even a character. In my opinion‚ Batman – also known as Bruce Wayne ¬– is the most heroic figure in the 21st century.

The thing is is that one may even be an ordinary person‚ doing an extraordinary action. A hero is one who will show courage and perseverance even when the odds are against

    Andy Warhol once said‚ “An artist is somebody who produces things that people don’t need to have. “ Warhol’s words can be twisted into meaning any number of things‚ it is up to the reader to make sense of what he is trying to say‚ the same goes for art. Art is not made to be some commercial poster to be hung on a dorm room wall‚ art is far more than that‚ and it is the window into the imagination‚ the truth of an artist. My thoughts on Warhol’s quote is that he is trying to say that everyone has
