DYLAN VAN DER MERWE - 18 The reason I make my art is to release my emotion and capture my feelings in a physical form. When I draw I don’t have to focus on thoughts that run through my mind but rather I can put all my focus on the piece. ADDISON MORGAN, 18 I did this painting because I really enjoy being creative and it makes me feel relaxed. I did this by doing acrylic pouring because I love abstract art and feel that not everything is concrete, like the human mind: complex, yet beautiful. The “Be You Tiful” Cactus one I love because it shows that beauty comes within yourself and it has its own sort of fun style. ELIZABETH RAMSEY - 18 I decided to go with photography as my medium. The blues represent the multiple forms of depression overcoming the model. LOGAN SEIBERT 18 18 year old Logan Seibert’s inspiration comes from him and the way he thinks when he draws. “I tend to escape reality in a way, like listening to music. In my mind, it feels somewhat free when I draw.” ABIGALE LAMBERT, 14 Abigale Lambert, 14, is a self taught inspiring artist. Her art reflects her thoughts and feelings of life. Art is used as an adjustment from going from a single home to split homes. Her paintings and digital art seem to improve with each new project. She likes to sign her art work as Pumpkin Girl Studio. SAVANNAH WILLIAMS, 15 I came up with the idea of this piece when I was listening to the radio one day while riding home in the car. The song ‘Big Big Plans’ by Chris Lane is the one that played. The beginning of the song describes his girl sitting in a chair, messy bun, sweatpants, etc. I thought that was adorable and it’d be fun to recreate so I decided that’s what I’d do. BRYSON PERRY, 13 has always loved to draw, sketch, sculpt and create anything he could think up. Out of all of those, he would say that drawing is definitely his favorite. “It all started when I was around the age of 2. My mom and I would sit in bed at night time and watch movies and television and we would always draw together. I would try to copy what I saw on the movies or TV shows. Sometimes I would try to draw exactly Member Member

of just stuck with me and became my hobby and something I did to pass time. Now I like to create the characters on my own and give them their own story. I want to thank my family and friends for always encouraging me and for all of their support.”
