Although in its separate color alone on the canvas it would be empty and underdeveloped as a single dot. Art begins with a simple dot (point) is where all art begins, but when the painted dots pairs with a creative solution and ingenuity life on canvas begins.

According to Brand (n.d) the political system of Sparta had many layers in the decision making process and consisted mainly from the Assembly, the Gerousia and the Euphors.

Birth and death are the two primal points of life, one signaling the beginning and the other signaling the end of life. While birth is celebrated amongst all cultures worldwide, death is met with resistance and fear. The fear of mortality has led to an obsession with death and a reverence for all things that are immortal.
