My work greatly explores feminine identity and my battle with mental illness. I struggle with depression every day, and creating is the healthy coping mechanism I use to express myself. My work focuses on the damage this dejection has done to my self-confidence and body image. I investigate my perception of self and what it means to me to be a woman in today's society. I dissect and criticize every little atom of my existence in life, but by exploring my literal reflection artistically, I can see the beauty in myself and constructively relinquish the destructive feelings. I hope that by viewing my work, others feel inspired and the work begins to help them heal as well.

Designing and Printing the Poster
This course will give you the tools to design a beautiful AND functional poster. Posters are not paintings, they are often created in response to or in service of a current event (a concert, a call to action/protest, an annual event, etc).Therefore the poster must service its function within limited time and often limited means (budgetary limitations that directly effect the printing process). We will learn to creatively work with and against these parameters. The best posters are usually few colors, in order to serve as quick reads that leave lasting impressions.
