Walter Martin and Paloma Muñoz, express the theme of life as an unknown journey in their artwork, Blindness. In their work, the blind are leading the blind, and the men and women are stumbling around with no direction. The sky is dark and gloomy, people are stumbling around on the cold, slippery ice; these are the symbols and archetypes that the artists use. These symbols convey the theme of life as an unknown journey because, we never know exactly what life has in store, we are all often living life following others that have no direction. In the artwork, people are stumbling around down mountain sides and on the brinks of falling into the cold and icy river. This piece of art can be seen as a warning to find and examine the direction of one’s life.

The theme of the artwork is coming home. The archtypes he uses are the masoleum, old man, snow,and the young adult and they symbolize the young adult's future. Because the young adult man is facing the older man, he is foreseeing his future. Even though he is foreseeing his future, it is clear he is having a cold ice death and a snowy scene is a perfect setting for death.

The main theme in the artwork titled, "The Honeymooners", by Martin and Muñoz, demonstrates the different personalities that a husband and a wife portray in a marriage. One of the symbols that Martin and Muñoz use to convey the different personalities would be the use of the cow; the cow symbolizes wealth and a source of income. In the artwork the women is holding the reigns, which represents her ability to hold and guide the relationship. Another symbol would be the car with a lot of baggage, it might represent his ego. Because he is sitting on top of the truck with his riffle, it makes it seem as if he does not trust his significant other. Therefore, this artwork might portray the common newlyweds, how sometimes the wife is the main person in the relationship who is doing most of the work to keep the relationship steady; while, the man might be too egotistical to realize that she is doing all of the work.
