feminine and mirrors everyday life

 By using only two colors, the focal points of the piece are made extremely distinct to the viewer.



The arched shape around the work gives the work a different perspective, such as one though a window.

A Few of My Favorite Things

 


1.) Woodstock Record: This record is the most recent in my growing collection. I started my collection because of my dad, who has one of the biggest and most random collections I've ever seen. 

2.) Paint Brushes: I have had these same brushes for over 8 years now and continue to use them for my acrylic paintings. As soon as I took my first art class as a child, I became obsessed with creating anyway I could. Additionally, my mother is an art collector so I was raised around artists and in galleries.

3.) Drumsticks: When I was little, I use to play my dads drum set all the time. Recently, my parents gifted me a kit of my own after begging for one for years and it has quickly become one of my favorite things to do.

4.) Ring: This is the most important piece of jewelry to me. After my Great Grandmother passed away a few years ago, my cousin had her vintage silver spoons made into rings for each of the girls in our family. I have worn it everyday since. 

5.) Book: This book has been my favorite since one of my dearest friends showed it to me in high school. It has been notated, highlighted, and ripped after so many rereads, yet the writing makes it the most beautiful book I believe I will ever read.
