Today is the opening day of my first exhibition as an artist, though this is the 46th student exhibition held by University of Alabama at Birmingham’s Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts. The artwork in the exhibition was juried by William Downs.
Two of my artworks were accepted into the exhibition. The first was a self portrait titled “Gemini” drawn in graphite, and the second was an abstract drawing titled “Tendrils” made with charcoal. I am proud that my work has been hung alongside my peer’s wonderful pieces.
