Art Description (What inspired you to create the artwork?) The person that inspired me to create this piece was my best friend. Throughout my life, I often doubt my capabilities and stray away from the things that I am passionate about. I created this piece as a gift for my best friend to remind her that she is also on the way to follow her dreams and become successful. Not only was this a gift for her, but also a gift for myself to create through art because it is something that I forget about too often.
