The idea that goes with this drawing is a on-going problem that high schoolers face RAPE. The idea where this came from is me trying to push the fact that this is a problem that has yet to be stopped and I think teenagers need to be better educated about it, and i'm not talking about tell girls that if you wear a dress or shorts or a crop top then there “asking for it”. I'm talking about telling them that if this happens its not there fault, telling teen boys that a female's body is NOT YOUR PROPERTY, tell them that they need to know that this is NEVER okay to do. The process that went along with this drawing was starting with the girl I drew her curled up in a ball sad, then I added lines to make it look like slashes on her legs and wrists, then added black dots to create a bruising effect, after that I decided to add words around her “Whore” signifying a word used to degrade females after they have lost there vriginty, “Worthless” is what a girl gets called when they don’t want to have sex with a certain person, “they wont believe you” something that rape/molestation/sexual assault surviors hear all too often, instead of getting help most of them feel silnced and worthless, most don’t survive because of the nightmares that follow, the fear of what might happen if they ever come across a guy again, the tourture they put themselves through because they are too afraid of what might happen if they go to the cop or athourity figures. The symbolism that is presented in this picture are the smaller words silent cries for help, and people standing up for the lost souls. I want the audience to think about what if your sibling, friend, girlfriend or classmate was raped..what would you do to help them? Would you stick up for someone even if it meant that you get degraded for helping an unpopular girl? This art work means that they aren’t alone that there are people who will do anything to help them through the storm.

Torn Between worlds
8 x 12, characole, 2016
The idea that all of us have heard either from a teacher, parents, consulur, sibling, or friend is “you are stronger than you think you are”. I got the idea for this piece of are by talking about a incident that had happen when I was 13-years-old, everyone around me were fighting, and at school I was getting called really rude and cureual name. the first thing I had started to paint was actually a photo of my brother but then I realized that through my life vie been focusing on him so much that I didn’t want to be in his shadow anymore, so then I decide I was still going to stick with the theme of getting through your own darkness, the girl in the photo is seen wearing a light gray and dark grey beanie which represents being torn between “worlds” one being trying to be the perfect daughter to her father and mother, and purple representing hiding in the dark about something that happened. Matched with a grey shirt that symbolizes feeling lost and trapped. Her running mascara and tears running down her eyes trying to make people see she is crying out for help in silence. Her black and blue hair resenting giving up. But there is something that keeps her going her bracelet if you look closely can you see it, a name carved into her bracelet MADDY her savior and anchor the memory of Maddy keeps her going. This artwork means hope, hope that you will overcome any obstacle that life throws at you. You will always find the light to guide you through the darkness. The symbolism in this painting comes in more than one place, her clothing, hair tears, and at the top…do you see it? “keep going”, “I’m with you”, a voice from above telling her she is never alone.
