Winter's Art 200X Blog

 

 My relationship to art is long and ever-changing. My mom is a kindergarten teacher and has been dedicated to implementing art and expression into her lesson plans since she began her career. My aunt is a very accomplished abstract artist and sent me a book about Georgia O'Keefe when I was six that I was absolutely obsessed with. I have been encouraged to experiment with different mediums as an outlet for emotional and artistic expression from a very young age. I have found a lot of passion for music and writing. I have also dabbled in sculpting, painting, collaging and jewelry making. Art is very cathartic for me and I continue to use each medium as it presents inspiration to me, as well as taking every opportunity to learn about art in school and otherwise. 

Hi! My name is Winter Grasso. I'm 20 years old and studying film at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. I was born in Alaska and traveled through the U.S. with my family, eventually returning back in 2011. I live in a little dry cabin outside of town and spend a lot of time trying to create a perfect clutter-core interior. I love to read, write, play guitar, bike, listen to music and experiment with all different artistic mediums.
