Keith Haring like drawing


Keith Haring is an artist who tried to talk about social issues in his drawing. 
He used symbols as a word. He used colors and lines to emphasize his drawings.

At first he started out his drawing on the chalk boards in subways. 
There are gaps in between times. He created an art for public. 
Sometimes he was arrested but after all he became very famous and popular. 

In my class AR135, my classmates and I attempted to try his drawing, implying social issues. We were able to use colors and any other medium but no words. 
I used black ink and poster colors. 
What do you think my keith-haring like drawing is implying? 


Basically, the drawing is symmetrical. It is balanced. No random blank space or size of the figures. Now, two figures at the bottom are two men. At the top of them, there is a red car without wheels. Two men's head replaced the wheels space. 

Why are there two men supporting car? 
I tried to imply that here in CNMI, gas prices have raised up severely so that almost everyone has been worried about his salary. We have $5.05 minimum wage in CNMI. Not much people are getting paid more than that. Most of all jobs offer $5.05. However, gas price is more expensive than that. I hear many stories about local people asking for money for gas. When especially there is no entertainment or any amusement in uptown in CNMI. There is no McDonald in Kagman, Capital Hill, or etc., but in Middle Road and Garapan which is still pretty far from all other places. Also, many stores are located in Garapan, Susupe, and San Antonio. Indeed, gas price is a burden. I wanted to say that gas price has been too much expensive and there are people who are suffering from it.
