Beautiful :)


Photoshop Video: Critically think about the images you see.

I personally think that 100 the years of laughter, emotion and endurance marked upon her face are more beautiful than the finished product. What do you think?

What messages does this video send?

What defines you?

As we begin exploring our online identities and reflecting on the way we represent ourselves, I cannot help but to be concerned with the amount of messaging, negativity and drama that we encounter at every turn. In class, we have talked about leaving the internet a better place than we found it and perpetuating positive ideas.

I am proud to have found a role model who has defied all odds and is using her challenges as a way to achieve a goal that we strive for every day -- creating an environment of kindness and respect.
