Lindsey, 2014, Diaspora Project

Lindsey graduated from SCAD, has been married three years, and has a talkative toddler for whom she sometimes has to interpret. Her mom passed away in 2008. Everything about her current domestic situation is uncertain, and it may all change in the coming year. Not only is it sad,  it makes her anxious, since she hasn't worked for three years. She struck me as really confident despite the situation.
Quote from art class that she remembers, "Drive your eye like a little car along the edge of something as you draw it."
