Artstudio 18 series#

The studio is located in in the Fine Arts Building, on the intersection of Oak Street and Brookwood Drive. VSU helped me to professionally showcase my work and set up different things like composition, cutaway, perspective, and even the history of art to understand what my art is, where it can go, and who I am as an artist.” A lot of my art is centered around black culture I grew up in. “I grew up in a culture of street arts and narratives from movies that address political and racial social issues. “A lot of my pieces were inspired by the culture I grew up in,” Robinson said. Senior art major, Spencer Robinson said his art is inspired by his culture.

In the midst of my faith, everything is not always bright and cheerful, there is also downfalls and things we face in life that are hard”

“I do have a series that is entitled ‘No Smoking’ that deals with depression and deals with the hard times that we face, I face, in life. “All of my pieces are based on my faith because that’s where I get most of my inspiration and motivation from,” Gray said. Marlene Gray, a senior art major says her faith is her main inspiration. “VSU definitely presented me with a lot of things that I probably would not have taken otherwise, but knowing myself, I knew the kind of things I wanted to do from the get-go so I could zoom in on that.”Īll of the artists had different reasons for what inspired them and their art. “(I) mostly want to make stuff that makes people happy, cheerful kind of stuff,” Entz said.
