Inspiration For “What’s Next?”

After graduating from UC Davis “What’s Next” was the first piece of art I created.  Drawing with pencils brings peace to my soul because it forces me to slow down and take my time. I decided to draw this boy because of his expression. It’s how I felt after graduating from college.  It’s an expression that makes you smile and wonder what he sees that causes this response. It represents my reaction to people asking, “What are you going to do now that you are graduated?” It’s the moment when I don’t really know and try to think of a smart answer. No one really knows what he or she is doing. All I know is that I will continue to do what I love and love others through it.
