We had a project in high school to create a portrait for a chosen orphan from Africa. The artwork we made was shipped to them. This was the first artwork I ever created using the stippling technique. It posed many challenges as I couldn’t undo the marks I made. The hair of the child was replicated with watercolor and pen. A few months after sending away our art, we got to see a video of the art being delivered. This was when I realize art could be bigger than myself. Art could have meaning for the people looking at it or receiving it. (2015)
