Art She’s Inspired

Hope is a Muse, or at least amusing!

“Self Portrait” by Hope Rogers (c. 2002)
“Hope is the Thing with Feathers” by Aneesha Thobani (2007)
“Oceans of Opportunities” by Hope Rogers, Courtney Reed, and Ashley Rudolph, created for the 2008 Georgia Beta Convention.
The rules said we could only use colored pencils and poster board, so we decided to make the pencils part of the art, with… mixed results. Courtney originally signed us up for the talent show, but we dropped out (after realizing we had no talents) and got stuck in the art contest instead. We did our best! (There was also a weird rule that we weren’t allowed to talk while making our posters, so everyone could hear our poorly muffled laughter throughout.)

and thanks to Emily Washburn for showing me that these are art!)
