Capturing Memories Through Art Series
I Have recently found that I have Alzheimer's is in my family. If you know me, I already have a bad memory, so the fact I have a higher chance of having Alzheimer's scares me. I wanted to find a way to preserve the memories that have impacted my life, so I can save and share what has made me!

The Beginning
This piece represents the memory of when I knew I was going to marry my fiance. The memory is very precious to me because we were doing something as simple as walking in a park. But when I was walking, I knew that I wanted to do all the simple things with him.

Important Places: My Space
I wanted to save not only memories dealing with people, but also with places. This place is important to me, because it is my first apartment and my first time away from home. This bed was where I found myself and got closer in my relationship with God.

Important Places: Nina's
Nina's house is very important to me and my family. Every time the family gathers we go to Nina's, any birthdays we go to Nina's. We even meet for lunch every Sunday after church at Nina's. I have lots of memories at Nina's and I want to remember them all

The Beginning
This piece is very special to me. The Beginning was made during my final year in college. I wanted to make something that combined what I had learned in Graphic Design and add a 3D element to it using ceramic clay. The piece is made up of Ceramic pieces that were colored and fired to create a mosaic of my husband and I. This piece not only represents the beginning of life after college, but also the photo was taken when I began seeing all the blessings God has given me.
