This book is the culmination of a year-long project experimenting with poetry and visual art. Each poem highlights a genre of personal experience and encompasses an overarching theme of my personal development and self-awareness. Genres of poetry include self-exploration, upbringing, hardships, and travel. I have also represented the tone of certain poems using visual art. Working with a local artist, I used a Strappo technique of acrylic painting to further express a process of development. This technique requires forethought, the main subject is painted first on glass, and detail layers are painted in sequence after. While each poem and piece of art represent experiences of my life, I hope you can derive similarities and inspiration for yourself.
