ReCreate your childhood

The first picture was taken when I was only 4 years old! I loved taking my pictures and getting ready. My grandpa brought me a princess crown on my birthday that year. I am 17 now and I still love posing for my pictures.

Portrait series

I was excited when I heard about doing a portrait series. I  knew I wanted to do the self portrait. I chose one my favorite outfits which was simple yet trendy. It describes my personality because I am very simple however I do have a heart of a little girl. I chose plain background because it signifies my simplicity. My pictures are black and white with few colors popping out, to illustrate that my personality is hidden and once you get to know me, my true personality of a little girl comes out. This effect also make my pictures are new look and the popping colors catches viewers' eye. I am satisfied with my work and I'm glad I could take this opportunity to portray my personality through pictures.

Newman's work wasn't appreciated in his time. However he gained much attention after his abstract art. I like his work because its so detailed and neat. Its composition keeps your eyes busy.


Edgar Mueller
Mueller is a 3D street artist. His works are open in public since they are done on streets. He started street painting at age of 25. He is one of my favorite artists because his ideas and works are unique. I like the fact his use of colors and techniques make the work look realistic. And unlike other artists his works are open to public.
