Art

Constance loves exploring new places and expressing my creativity through art and fashion! Whether I'm sketching designs, visiting art galleries, or putting together cool outfits, I find inspiration everywhere I go. Traveling helps me see the world from different perspectives, and I enjoy capturing those

Project 1

Around the (whole) World

Constance's work explores current events, such as war, illustrating its impact on citizens and symbolizing how people worldwide unite in hope for peace.

Project Insight

The brighter part of the artwork represents the global hope for peace, with children forming letters to symbolize teamwork and unity.

The darker part of this work portrays the tragic impact on children who find themselves amidst wreckage after bombings, covered in blood and bearing witness to horrors no child should ever see.

The experience if traveling all around the world largely impacted and inspired my art work. Being able to physical see the objects and landmarks allowed me to better understand how to draw them and capture the vibe of each country.

Project 4

Practice makes perfect! Sketches are used to practice skill, here are some of my favorite sketches. At the start of sketching, it was quite difficult, I couldn't draw straight lines, and I had trouble shading. Over time with practice, however, I got better and better.
