New Beginnings

Gabriella H.
Puerto Rico

After the dandelions life cycle has come to a end, it starts spreading it’s seeds to start a new beginning and continues to grow again. It reminds me of how when we move after awhile it’s time for us to go and start a new beginning. Each new place we go helps us grow, and learn new experiences.

Struggles of Deployment

Evelyn M.

"A digital canvas showing the struggle of separation between a teen girl and her deployed mother. It is often hard to find peace when you are separated by your parents in a military situation. Sometimes, you have to find peace in the small moments with your parents, because every moment is special."

"Each piece was inspired by Bloom itself - the message, theme, colors, etc. "Bloom where you are planted" - don't just live somewhere, plant yourself in your community and thrive. The dandelion shows us - how we can go and live anywhere, are constantly moving, and we don't only grow, but become a "beautiful flower.""

Creation of Bloom

"This piece is exploring nature through a re-creation of the 'Creation of Adam' by Michelangelo and is part of a portfolio using a specific piece of fabric. When I fist started this piece, it unfortunately got lost when my phone stopped working, so I recreated on paper and have seen a growth in both my art and my style." (Picture taken by Art teacher).
