Don’t jude, look beyond the face and see the person.
“This poem is about guiding in life and how sometimes you struggle choosing the right path to lead, but most importantly this is a personal poem and I wanted to show others my experience throught it.”
I enjoy art and drawing because it is peaceful and fun. It makes me feel warm and relaxed. I like to draw eyes because all eyes are different and I like to explore my creativity. I draw red if I’m angry as this helps me to express my emotions. Are just makes me feel good!
Stardom versus reality – I focused on what the audience sees versus a stars real life, the two are very different things. Marilyn Monroe was perfect for this piece due to all the objectification and scandal surrounding her. She hated that everyone oversexualised her, even though she tried hard to fight in a patriarchal society. I used dots to represent this as it was a gruelling process and shows her struggles and hard work that shows how truly mesmerising it can appear.
I enjoyed art because it’s fun, interesting and it challenges my mind. It makes me feel relaxed. Art is a calming mechanism and helps with my emotions. I am passionate about drawing, and I am willing to try new ideas with paint, chalk, pencil and pastels.

Dreamers, nothing is impossible for thoe that dream. I wanted to make a gradient and then I wrote on the words which I think speak for itself.
Life is tough… but so are you
Mental health matters, talk to someone, it made me feel better.
Sakura in moonlight, this piece is about stopping to look at nature. I used paper and tissue to create layers.
