Were these the 'Good Old Days'? Or simply wrapped up in nostalgia?


My Grandmother

This is an old photo of my grandmother that I redrew in pencil for her birthday. She grew up on a farm in Missouri, where most of my mom's family lives.

That it was all started by a mouse."

Abbey

This was one of the cats my friend fostered. Abbey was sassy, independent, and pretended she didn't like you but wanted to be where you were.

A View of North Campus

This is based off a picture I took from my dorm window sophomore year. I entered this into a residence life art competition and ended up winning!

"The only artistic act we have left is synthesis. The way we synthesize elements is what gives us our voice."

The Past

This was one piece in a series of three from my Art 3000 final project. The three pieces focused on the past, present, and future. They were centered around the theme of home, and how it's changed during my years in college.

About Me

INT. SARA’S DESK - NIGHT
There are string lights hung around the room, creating a warm, cozy space. A cup of half drank tea sits at the corner.

SARA

Hey there! Most of the time, I’m working on homework, but all I really want to do is find the motivation to make more art. I’ve been trying to get back into reading, as I used to read a ton in high school. I’m a computer science major, but sometimes I wonder whether I should have chosen something else. I’m about to graduate soon and be stuck in the real world forever, so I’m trying to make the most of this semester while it lasts.
