This print, although simplistic, holds a lot of emotion for me. It represents the struggle I am having finding fulfillment in my life at this time. I believe it is easy for others to relate to because we are all constantly searching for ourselves and trying to live up to societal standards whether we want to or not. Pressure to be "successful" and "happy" often consumes me and I have been trying to figure out how to feel whole or complete. What constitutes the feeling of contentment in life?

Work in progress
This is a print of my mother that I am working on right now. I am in a history of motherhood course this semester which has made me think a lot about the relationship I have with my mother. Also, being a psychology minor opens up interesting aspects of our relationship as well I am excited to continue working on this piece.

Missing the Shop of Love
I feel so strange not being in the shop of love this semester! I suppose it's understandable since I'm in GLASGOW! Having a great time already. I can't wait to catch my first rugby game though, right Joel! Check out my travel blog if you'd like and I'll be back at home in the shop in no time!
