"Speak Truth. Hear Truth. See Truth."My first ar

"Speak Truth. Hear Truth. See Truth."My first art installation of this magnitude is on display in the window of Della Viti in Downtown Ames throughout the month of July.I created this art piece in response to the racial tensions in this country. It is my hope that we start having true face to face conversation. Our differences are what make us stronger and our past is not a reflection of our future. The color of one's skin does not determine their thoughts, motives, abilities, hopes or dreams. On the inside we are all made of the same. One heartbeat at a time we live.Thank you @octagon_arts for your heart in putting together this event and giving black artists an opportunity to speak through art.Thank you @dellaviti_ames for giving this art creation a place to showcase. It has been such a wonderful experience getting to know you and I'm truly grateful for your support.And ultimately, a big thanks to my family and friends who were willing to help in the creation of this piece. I love you all and cannot thank you enough. 🤗.

I led my first art workshop at the Black Arts and Music Festival. I had such an incredibly good time and met so many wonderful people. I'm definitely planning to lead more of these in the future.#BAMF #blackartsfestival #JewelStarz #amespubliclibrary #blackhistorymonth #blackartists #africanamericanartist

There's a first time for everything. And I'm about to have 3 firsts in one day.1) I'm going to be participating in the Black Arts & Music Festival in Ames this year.
2) I'll be running a hands on art workshop teaching 6th graders to adults of all ages to make their own paper shadowbox creation.3) And I'll be giving an artist talk. ( Talking about myself in front of a room full of people will definitely be new. )The Black Arts & Music Festival event is on February 8th and 9th at the Ames Public Library. However, my art will be on display in the Studio room on the second floor from February 2nd through February 15th.I'd love to see you there. I'm so incredibly excited!

"You need to come back now." Fearful that somethin

"You need to come back now." Fearful that something was terribly wrong, I ran back as fast as I could. I rounded the corner of my tent, gasping for air, but I wasn't met with the doom of my imagination... instead I was met by the coordinator of the show and a photographer?I was chosen as 1 of the top 4 artists for Best In Show!!! The jurors of the Octagon Arts Festival chose me out of around 100 other artists. I was completely taken by surprise. So much so that I actually had to go back and ask the coordinator to explain to me again what I had won.
I couldn't be more grateful. My husband, Mother-in-law, and kids have been so supportive of me and there is no way that I could do what I do without them.Here's to many more opportunities to keep doing what I absolutely love and sharing it with the world.Lesson Learned: You never know when it'll be your time to shine. Always be ready.@jewelstarzart #letyourlightshine #paperdecor #papercreations #paperengineering #paperarts #paperaddict #paperartist #handcutpaper #artaward #octagonartsfestival #uniqueart #alwaysbeready #littlesurprises #awardwinner #andtheawardgoesto

Had a great weekend of art shows at @artonthelake

Had a great weekend of art shows at @artonthelake and the @octagon_arts festival.Despite the rain, it was still an amazing time. I'm truly inspired to create even more unique one-of-a-kind art pieces. I was so encouraged and am thankful for everyone that I met. You'll definitely be seeing me at more shows in the future.
