Her Notebook

Ava’s arm represents the memory of her father with a symbolic reference to her family’s history. The crown is a fine linear drawing done with fine liner ink and pencil. The emphases of colour are splashes on the three dimensional emeralds and rubies on the crown, representing the birth stones of her family members. Classy, yet powerful, the image holds well on her upper arm as a powerful reminder of her past and attachment to her father, Umberto.

“Same face, different movement, new colours, different style. Change can be something that holds us back or molds us into the beautiful beings we all can be. We change daily, we grow, we break down and are built up again. We grow to learn, we grow to see, we grow to love in new ways.Here’s to painting it all out and not being afraid to press down.” -Luisa Pariselli

“So I always get nostalgic with that song. But in my room it’s forced.
It has to be in some car across the street. And I always catch the back of your head in a crowd.
Just don’t turn around. It’s never you and we’ve ruined those memories. And those photos are great if I catch them with the side of my eye. But if I stare, it just turns into you and me, we’re just standing there.And now its over-would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?
And when you go there-would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?
So you crank that song and it might sound doomed.So just leave the room while I sit and stare.
This is rare-I really love that tune. Man, I love that song. I really love that song.”
