                This artifact are different drawings and art work by Tim Burton, I also decided to incorporate a video of the director himself in a behind the scenes where he talks about his art, how it all started, and the meaning behind them.  Tim Burton is not only known as a director but for his weird and fascinating drawings.  The majority of his art is found online, more specifically in blogs that are dedicated to him and all of his accomplishments. With the internet being such a successful and knowing form of media, it is very easy to come across these drawings in blogs and research sites. The thing that has caused these drawings in being so memorable to the audience is the fact that well, they are not very good.  This art work is so different than what people are used to seeing that it grabs their attention. In the video we learn about how Tim Burton was never very good at drawing as a child but he continued because he saw it as a form of escape and a way to process his thoughts and what he was feeling.  The idea of a person person being normal or anything that has to do with the idea of  “normal” has always scared Tim Burton, and that is what has made him and this  artwork  so remembered and known.
