Summer 2022 Youth Spotlight: Tyonna G.
Tyonna G. is an apprentice in our graphic design group this summer
What is the most interesting thing you have learned this summer?
The most interesting thing was the rubber printmaking lesson. It was my first time doing it. I usually don’t really like drawing, but I definitely like doing things with my hands more than doing things digitally.
What has been your favorite project so far?
My favorite was the project with Jasmine we did this project, it was about border control. It was a heavy topic but we did a collage about it, we cut up pictures from magazines. I liked the way that Jasmine led the activity and the topic and the fact that we did it through collage. I liked all parts of it.
What is something that you are looking forward to this summer?
Nothing in particular. I wasn’t really into art at the start of this summer, I was kind of against it at the beginning, but now I’m paying attention more and it’s a lot more interesting.
Has this class impacted the type of art you want to make? If so, how?
I’ve only done art in school before and I liked doing these new methods of art here.
