Art Description (What inspired you to create the artwork?) This piece was actually one that I used in my Humber art portfolio application. I had to create a colour still life and thought, what better idea than to create a piece showing the materials that surrounded me in my favourite place. These were some items that I used or was surrounded by in my art classroom. This was such a safe and inspiring space for me that I spent much of my time in during high school. My teacher was always there for me and opened my eyes to art. He helped bring back my passion and love for art, and without him, I would not be here at Humber today.
