The character depicted in the piece is a character I made a couple years ago with my brother.

Whenever I can find a day with solid hours to paint, I grab my box of bottles and brushes and sit at a canvas.

I use all mediums and my motivation comes from random inspirations and ideas.

This piece is a ceramic tile with a koi pond design.

This piece was my depiction of an aura of strength and power.

Others passion and joy has always been a subject I love to capture. For the individual in my piece, their passion is the focus, their love.

My artwork is a hand embroidery piece of one of my favorite cartoon characters Garfield.

I decide to make an eye for my art project because I believed everybody has a google side but not everyone can see that.

I was assigned to make an art piece of a landscape and what I did was make a mountain range where some of them had faces that depicted different emotions.

This piece was inspired by a video game "Genshin Impact" an action RPG game.

I started with a needle and thread and drew the rose and cactus over a piece of cloth.

I did a half female half robot drawing.

It is the idea of portraying a spooky, if not an interesting scene of a skeletal hand reach over the moon which has the shadows of trees and above all in total darkness.

It impacts my life because it leads me to be more productive and attentive.

This photograph, "Beauty", is a representation and reflection of beauty standards through the eyes of the camera lens.

When I was making this I was just thinking about all of the characters that I like since in one way or another I have a bit of all of them in my personality.

I am interested in interior design and plan to attend SCAD in the fall. This work reflects my love of pattern, nature and order.

Through this piece I wanted to explore the control that society holds over BIPOC bodies especially those of brown/black women and the ways that capitalism and industrialization systemically dehumanize folks of color.

The artwork of mine I chosen is one of my favorites.
