Student Spotlight: Savannah Morgan
April 3rd, 2014 | Natasha Englehardt
Platt College graphic design student Savannah Morgan has been studying here since October 2013, and is talented in more than just digital design but also traditional art! Her latest painting of singer Amy Winehouse has been on display at the Pico House Gallery in downtown Los Angeles. This Sunday the gallery will be hosting a closing reception at 3pm if you will be in the area and are interested in attending. Savannah shared with us her artist statement that was included with her painting that’s on display:“Art is what motivates, challenges, and inspires me. Through my paintings, I aim to inspire others in the same way. I chose Amy Winehouse for this piece because she symbolizes how women have finally gained freedom of expression despite the judgment from society. She inspires others through her music and her rebellious persona. If it weren’t for the previous advancements and achievements of women in our society, we would not have the opportunity to express our uniqueness the ways we would like.” -Savannah Morgan
Interviewer: What is your favorite piece you have created so far?Savannah: I’d say that it’s a tie between the Bob Marley and the Paul Walker. The Marley piece is the biggest I’ve ever done and the Paul Walker, in my opinion, is the most realistic. I love them both!
