I was inspired to create this piece because same sex relationship are something I'm passionate about. I created this piece as a form of self expression. To create this piece I used hot glue, and tissue paper, along with acrylic paint. This piece is also to show my support for everyone else that is a part of the LGBTQ+ community. We're not alone.
Free yourself

I was inspired to do this piece based on my past experiences. We were told to do a texture piece and they go with distorting images. This is a topic I'm passionate about and this piece is used as a form of self expression. The birds flying away is like self harm making your worries fade away. Your "freeing yourself". I used Acrylic paint and a canvas to do this piece.

This piece is done in watercolor on watercolor paper. I chose to do this piece because I've done a piece with umbrellas before and I felt like this would be a good way for me to practice with water color techniques. I used each piece of the umbrella to test a different technique. I'm not strong when it comes to watercolor so it was definitely an experience.

I chose to do this for my choice painting because I got to try new things. I had to figure out what colors to put where and decide how exactly I wanted it to look. I have done expression pieces like this in the past. It is acrylic based and I painted it on masonite board and I had to experiment a lot because I kind of just started throwing paint down. I had to change and problem solve a lot in this piece.
