Artist's Statement: This set of still life is my favorite because it represents what I have spent so much time on in my life: basketball and baseball. I set the basketball and baseball side-by-side to represent that they are both parts of me that I can't get away from. Although the basketball is physically bigger than the baseball, they are both equal in my appreciation for them. The fresco filter depicts how sports are my go-to whenever I feel down or stressed. The glow represents how they are lights in my life and always will stick out from other activities.
