Lucille Ball pop-art done by my little sister Katie Werner in her art class at Leigh High. She made this for me for my birthday '07. This very cool painting represents my amazing relationship with my little sister. She makes me smile a lot and I love spending time with her. Another thing in this painting that represents something about me is the lights and darks, the shades of pink and harsh black background- some black is let into the face of Lucy but the majority of her face is light pink, magenta, and white. I see these colors as different things in my life and the painting is the balance of the good times and the adversity- with an overall aesthetically pleasing outcome:).
"Just do it" -Nike. Love that quote. Love Nike. This shoe, however, I would never wear. I chose this image for the reason of leopard print is my thing and I am athletic, hence the Nike. I played basketball for 9 years, recently retired, but the game really shaped me. Early on I learned to become a team player, know my role, take action, listen, communicate- not only on the court, but in life. And leopard print, it's all over my room. The spontaneous pattern of the leopard that seems to always look different when you see it but every time it's seen, you know it's leopard print. This represents that I can be wild, or say things out of line, or speak my mind, or get really frustrated, but at the end of the day I find my ground and I am the same old Richelle. This is my Uncle DD, also known as David Boswell, who I believe is the master of jazz. His music is very calming and inspiring. This photo of him represents my love of not only my family but my love for music. My dad being a DJ, I have been around all types of music my whole life, however when I'm not on the clock as his assistant I chose to listen and enjoy my music on my own time. Music is an escape from reality for a second, and once I am back I feel as though I have gained something to better myself. My favorite music I would have to say is John Mayer.
The show Sex and the City also takes me away from the world I live in (a.k.a. the bubble of Los Gatos) and lets me live for an hour through the big city drama, fashion, love lives, friendships, and characters. The ability for a television show to do that for a person I believe is an art for sure. What the show says about me is I don't take life too seriously, I like to sit back and relax every once and while, and I see beauty in the simple things in other "characters" lives.
