In the Wildest Dreams
Jason C.
Virgnia
Have you ever thought about something absurd? Perhaps teleporting yourself to somewhere you want go to. Somehow miraculously your friend from a far away place moves to where you were. Or maybe, having a party with your friends on the moon?

Attacks to the Heart
Tristan F.
Clarksville, TN
Everybody will face hardships in their life, nobody is safe from those attacks. So when we are attacked by those dangers, we can't give up. We have to endure and continue walking the path of life.

So I send a wish to where you are
A kiss from me to you afar"

Bye Bye Pets

Moving Again
Elizabeth B.
Hawaii
“This painting shows the pressure and exhaustion that comes with moving. It’s not just taking things from place to another, it’s saying goodbye to old friends and the places that you were able to call home. It’s about the mental preparation that comes with realizing that you have to start all over. You have to find a new coffee shop for the weekends, a new layout for your house, a new friend group, a completely new life. The painting is meant to capture the moment of rest in a time of stress and uncertainty.”
