High School

I was drawn to the comforting yet artistic ambience of a tile collage on the outside of my high school building. It’s stated with bright tiles that read ”1998” that the artwork was made multiple years ago. I couldn’t help but think about all the memories encapsulated within those tiles, a true representation of high school life being captured. As the warm August sunlight reflected from these tiles early in the morning as I was taking pictures outside for my photography class, I immediately knew the tiles must be photographed. The month of August brought promise of a fresh start, a new school year, and these unique tiles felt as though they were telling me to enjoy the time I have left in high school; to cherish my senior year and to not take moments like these for granted.

To me, creativity is expressing my individual artistic qualities, and doing so by indulging in art projects that bring me genuine happiness. I discover my artistic style more and more as I continue to photograph things that bing me joy and pride.
