A BA with a B.A. ✊🏾🎓✨ Thank you to my amazing friends and family and educators that made this possible. Looking forward to putting this degree to work and making my community and my world a better place. I may be my family’s first university grad, but I know I won’t be the last. . . . #hugrad #howardalumni #zttakesdc #howarduniversity #hu18 (at Howard University) https://www.instagram.com/queen_zey/p/BxS5eIQgSG4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qlsvx75p1sfv

“What artists learn from other artists is not so much history or technique (although we learn tons of that too); what we really gain from the art making of others is courage-by-association.” -Art & Fear

This quote was inspirational for me because I always noticed that I am more inspired/motivated when I am surrounded by like-minded individuals, and seeing other artists usually trigger that response in me,

I am reminded of one I first went to Professor Cook’s presentation at a HU Symposium a couple years ago,

it was the first time I recall being at a live event and feeling inspired by the work of another artist.

It was the first time I felt motivated to pick up my camera and conceptualize my own images,

I realize that I enjoy learning about the way other artists conceptualize and manifest their ideas.

8/27/18 - Cerca 8:45 am in the Valley of Howard University this morning. 

As I was waiting for my chemistry lab to begin, I decided to go on a birding endeavor [seeking birds]. I had my popcorn and trailmix packed and ready to feed them.

As I began my venture, I ran into this cat for the second time during my matriculation here at Howard.

He doesn’t appear to have any pupils when I look into his eyes.

I kept inching my way closer and closer, but he never broke his gaze.
