My First Solo Roadtrip!
My Travel Story
I have always longed for a journey of self-exploration through travel. I was raised in NYC as a city kid, with street smarts and an urban attitude towards life. That being said since I was young nature has fascinated me. The mountains, valleys, oceans and deserts of our country fill my mind with wonder.
I also have 5 brothers and sisters. This often left me with the desire of me time. Alone time. Silence and curated space of solitude. Traveling alone will give me the ability to reflect and listen to myself, make my own decisions and grow in ways I have yet to.
Since graduating from School in 2013 with my BFA, travel has become a very serious desire of mine. Everything I do is to work towards exploring the nature and scenic beauty our country has to offer. My art degree left me with an eye geared towards simple beauty. In everything from construction sites to oceans. Seeing the way this cities architecture intersects the blue skies above - it drives my creative practice. The way a shadow can drape itself over surfaces to create new shapes fascinates my creative mind.
I long to explore different landscapes. Natural, urban, deserted, over-crowded, oceanic, lush, to discover new compositions. To document my travel and share my eye with others in maybe the form of a photo book.
To travel to new foreign places, close and far will give me new tools. The experiences will expand my eye's ability to recognize beauty, color, and composition.
I am extremely grateful for any donation made in making these dreams a reality.
