My concentration is a series of mixedmedia doodles that incorporate inspirational quotes
about girls. The many layers of my pieces represent the many different layers that I believe
girls are made up of. The incorporation of quotes within the pieces are meant to both inspire
and encourage girls to embrace the many layers of themselves and be who they are. I chose
to work in a playful manor representative of how many teenage girls will doodle almost
trance-like while talking late night with their friends. My concentration was inspired by
growing up in a house full of woman and by being surrounded with all of my best girl friends.
