Rain Barrel

Every year the Cincinnati Zoo teams up with SaveLocalWaters to raise money for water conservation. The zoo reviews and accepts submissions from local artists to paint rain barrels to be auctioned off. This project is a way to educate the public and raise money. I decided to contribute a barrel this year because my submission was accepted! I attached pictures of my (almost) finished barrel and also the link to the Save Local Waters website. I highly recommend submitting a design in the years following. There is an awesome group of people in charge of the barrels and it's for a great cause. I hope you enjoy!

The rain barrels will be on display at the Cincinnati zoo starting March 31st and the auction will be online April 9th and 19th.

  1. I have heard about this project at the zoo before and think it is such a cool idea, it is even cooler that your entering in a barrel. At first I thought you were using an example as your picture but now I realize that that is yours! Your barrel is awesome and it will go for a lot of money for sure.

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Malena Bozzini         Malena Bozzini is a sophomore college student studying psychology. As her passion she is an artist. Her work is so original and abstract in order to dramatize her figures. She creates art out of emotion and uses her feelings to choose color and shape. One of the most interesting facts is that all of her pieces are done with colored pencils. Her art is so expressive that each piece gives out its own vibe. What makes her art unique is that it is inspired by motion and gestures. It is amazing how she developed such a style at such a young age.  Instagram @ malenabozzini

Hello everyone! today I'm going to talk about one of my favorite Instagram artists, Trevor Henderson! The reason why I like Trevor Henderson's art is that I really like how disturbing and creepy is art is. Here are a few examples of some of his art.
