Art Show

This is my last post of the semester, but our ART SHOW is coming up and I am so very excited! I have three pieces that are going to be in the show: my suitcase, my wooden boards, and my plexiglass frame. They all focus on the same central idea: text. I finally named my pieces. The suitcase is named "Thoughts on Travel", the wooden boards are "Unforgettable" and the plexiglass frame is "Christmas Memories". I am really excited to see how the audience reacts to all of these because they are all so different, yet very much the same. They are all focusing on different memories and thoughts, but they are all a way for me to get my thoughts out of my head and to be able to share them with others.

That's A Wrap!

I am officially finished with my work for this semester and couldn't be happier. I have been focusing on the same central idea for a year now and that is working with text and using text to express myself in a bit of a discreet way. I enjoy making work that does not completely reveal everything about myself or my whole story. I love using text to express myself because I enjoy writing. It's fun to be able to write down everything I have always wanted to say but could never say out loud. It brings me a sense of relief and satisfaction. I enjoy documenting memories in my art work and sharing them with others.
