If there was a choice of spending a lot of money on accessories or dresses, I always chose accessories. I think jewelry can change an outfit more than anything else.
INTRODUCTION
The most difficult time in my life was when I lost my dog; he was always a fantastic support for me; we used to play a lot, sleep together, and have a lot of conversations with the assistance of whistles and woofs, primarily with brows. I was truly missing him. I wish I could just revive him.

DOODLING

I opted for this picture because it represents my feeling of brokenness and incompleteness and because even though my life is beautiful and I can still fly, there is still an incompleteness due to that event. I also discovered that most of the keywords in this picture are pain, weakness, hopelessness, anger, loneliness, and fear.




FORM EXPLORATIONS
03.

The mind has always been aware of the completeness of a form or shape, but the lack of any missing structure, whether in the eyes or in the mind, renders that special type incomplete.
Since it also displays a nod at the top to interrupt the moment of eyes

FINAL FORM




This demonstrates a flawless transition of my emotion, showing how slowly my feelings dissipate, and now I am ready to take flight, which is why I show a transition of diminishing of a form, which comes inside of each form.
FORM GRADATION

.png)
The mind is constantly aware of the fullness of a form or shape, but the absence of some missing formation, complicated to complete that is eyes or mind, renders that specific form incomplete.
I wanted to illustrate the diminishing of form here to convey my feeling that memory is disappearing eventually.
DRAPING EXPLORATIONS
04.
I wanted to set my forms on my chest and shoulders to show that my emotions are mostly from one of these locations because dog loss causes sadness, and grief in those areas. So I tried several various draping techniques on these.
FINAL DRAPING



I chose this drape because it depicts the incompleteness of a wing, and to take from big to small because it shows the emotion gradually diminishing and feeling emerging.
Why are those wings moving upwards? Because that is how the feelings will take flight and eventually disappear, and it is also positioned on the left side, where our heart resides.
