Evolving and Decaying.


Focal Point
The structure is made mostly of negative space except for how its held up and the middle which is focused upon due to the structures diagonal lines moving towards it and the movement of liquid under the glass.


Organic Line
The curved structure or line of what is assumed to be the spine curls to the main point which is the mouth in the middle that is emphasized due to the blank structure of the canvas and phantom lines stretching from it.

A Few Of My Favorite Things


1. Build-A-Bear: My mom bought this bear for me before I was born. There is a sound box inside its right paw that she recorded her voice on and a marshmallow scent as well. It is the first gift she gave me and I cherish it very much.

2. How To Train Your Dragon Book: I was obsessed with the How To Train Your Dragon books and movies when I was a kid and I believe the series has helped me become who I am today. Dragons are my favorite fantastical creature and this story carved my childhood with them.

3. My Dogs Collars: My dogs, Daisy and Mitzy, are very important to me and have been with me throughout my whole life. I wanted to show their collars to represent how glad I am that they chose me like how I chose them.

4. Clown Doll: It's a very recent gift my Nana gave me that she made by hand. She doesn't create dolls anymore, but the craft and love she had to create it is truly wonderful and I am glad she gave it to me.

5. Boot with Flowers: I went to a rodeo with my friend on the day she gave me these boots. They do not fit me anymore, but my mom made it into a flower holder that stands by my bed. Now, I'll remember that day for awhile.

6. Guitar: I picked up guitar from my Dad and while I don't play much anymore it still played an important role in my childhood and was a great experience to have.
