Interview With The Artist: Lulu


By: Courtney Glover McElwee 5-29-2018



Today I interviewed the artist, Lulu. Lulu is a 16 year old artist from Maryland and known as Pilulu on DeviantArt. Lulu is a cartoonist and has been drawing for 9 years now. The first thing she ever created, “It’s hard to say. Probably a crappy picture of me.” Personally, I find that difficult to believe seeing how wonderful her art is. I asked what inspired her to start drawing, “Watching anime. Dragon Ball Z was a huge influence since it was the first anime I ever watched.” Her favorite type of art is anything bright, colorful and cartoony. She also enjoys creepy, cute art. Her tools of the trade are markers. Lulu has been involved in several art shows and won a silver award for one. Lulu has been on DeviantArt for two years now and has over 450 pieces of art. You can’t help but smile as you browse her gallery. Lulu may be young, but she has a bright and colorful future ahead of her.

Collector of Souls

Her: “It’s good to see you.” Him: “I know it’s been awhile.” Her: “I heard you joined the army.” Him: “Yeah, that was a crazy ride.” Her: “I heard rumors in town. That you died over there...” Him: “You can’t believe rumors.” He knew she still cared. Her: “So, what kind of work do you do now?” Him: He held his breath, his thoughts screaming loud. Him: “I’m a collector of sorts.” Her: “A collector of what?” Him: “A collector of souls.” Her: “I doubt that very much.” Him: “You see that old black Buick? New haircut, new clothes?  They’re part of the perks, of being a collector of souls.” She smiled an amused grin, and patted his chest. “If you say so, sweetheart. But you’ve traveled far and need your rest.” Him: “You don’t have to believe me. Maybe it’s better that way.” Her: “Oh, you never told me! How long can you stay?” He smiled a sad smile, put his hand on her back, “Not long I’m afraid.” It was time that he lacked. He kissed her forehead, saying, “I know you’ve been sick.” With t...

Free Speech

I fail to understand why so many individuals feel as if their opinions are the only ones worth listening to. Some people either shove their opinions down your throat or call you a racist simply for disagreeing with them. It certainly seem as if a great deal of people these days react this way when speaking to anyone who has an opposing view. Last I checked however, this is still America. In America, everyone is entitled to voice their own personal opinions, EVERYONE.  Everyone should be able to voice their personal feelings and beliefs, without having to fear some type of retaliation or punishment. If you’re allowed to kneel without condemnation, then you should also be allowed to stand without receiving condemnation. Not just Democrats, not just Liberals, and not just Leftists. Not just Republicans, not just Conservatives, and not just the Right.   It’s also important to remember that individuals can disagree with one another and still remain friends. Only someone truly immat...

The Evil Eye

The evil eye protection charm is a blue talisman that is round in shape, typically made of glass. The talisman contains an outer dark blue circle, an inner white circle, followed by an innermost light blue circle with a black dot (as in the eye’s pupil) painted on it. It is a protection charm that an individual wears, or carries, to protect themselves from any and all unwanted danger and/or evil spirits. Legend says the evil eye protective charm calls upon an otherworldly presence that reflects any malicious and vengeful glares/curses from a spiteful individual. The spiteful person believing that an innocent person (the victim of the curse) somehow wronged them, and so wishes harm towards that innocent individual.  The evil eye talisman (or charm) was created to protect someone from this evil eye curse. Even though these protective charms are also referred to as "evil eyes", their purpose is to protect the bearer, not harm. Another popular talisman is the Hamsa (also depictin...
