Our artwork represents the journey of fitting in and being ‘pretty’ on our own without help. We think this matter is not talked about enough in younger communities to help kids and teenagers feel comfortable in their own skin. Most young girls feel pressured to be ‘perfect’ and this causes them to try and change the way they look with retinol and makeup. We need more kids to know that true beauty is who you are not who others tell you to be. This is why every conversation really does matter.
