SUNDAY ARTIST: PASCAL CAMPION

Hello everyone!

I'm so excited to finally be a part of the Autumn Society! My name is Brianna Gilmartin and here are just a few pieces to introduce myself. First, my senior thesis (the ELY).

For my ELY I decided to do 4 children's book illustrations. I adapted the Led Zeppelin song "Friends" into a children's book because it gave me room to do pretty much whatever I wanted.

Where have you gone, Childhood??

New personal piece I just completed for fun, following after a conversation with co-workers about how 'Youth is wasted on the Young.'

If you had the knowledge you have now, and were a child again, would you make the same decisions you did in the past? Or perhaps you'd try and shape yourself into a completely different person than how you turned out now?

Bitch Magazine

New illustration I did for this quarter's Bitch Magazine for an article titled "Status Foe." It deals with a study that says people who tend to post less information about their own lives on Facebook will secretly look at other peoples' profiles a lot more. They feel embarrassed about their own shortcomings, or feel that they haven't gotten where they want in life versus their friends who have graduated, gotten married, are having children, visiting amazing vacation spots, and so on (which is all constantly being posted on Facebook's Feed).

And a new personal illustration from a childhood dream of mine: sailing on the ocean in an over-turned umbrella. Enjoy!
