11 Female Artists Leading The Art Instagram Game
Instagram

In the history of art, the field has been majorly dominated by men. Instagram is an awesome platform for creators to post, promote, and sell their works. Here I've compiled a list of some of my favorite female artists on Instagram with interesting feeds and unmatchable talent.

1. Reisha Perlmutter:

Focusing on texture, femininity, water, and the human body, Perlmutter paints massively beautiful hyperrealistic canvases. @reishaperlmutter

2. Alonsa Guevara:

This NYC-based artist masterfully paints a plethora of realistic fruits, veggies, plants, and people on sometimes huge and sometimes handheld canvases. Major impasto envy. @alonsaguevara

3. Anja Salonen:

Seriously skilled and wonderfully weird. @anjasalonen

4. Alyssa Monks:

Another NYC resident, Monks paints disorienting foggy portraits, playing with distortion and texture all the while evoking delicate beauty. @alyssamonks

5. Aleah Chapin:

Chapin focuses on studying the nude with complex light and compositions. @aleah_chapin

6. Elly Smallwood:

Smallwood's expressive yet refined style of painting boldly represents subjects from the nude to various animals. @ellysmallwood

7. AM DeBrincat:

Color, texture, up-close eyes and lips all define this Brooklyn-based painter. @amdebrincat

8. Emma Hopkins:

This English artist explores the human body "from the inside out," often focusing on grotesquely beautiful layers of skin and hauntingly painted portraits. @emma_hopkins_artist

9. Adria Mercuri:

Mercuri focuses on portraits, usually depicting her subject's likeness in detailed, textured pen and pencil. @adriamercuri

10. Robin F. Williams:

Surrealistic paintings with colorful, insightful twists. @robinfrancescawilliams

11. Dan Lam:

Ooey-gooey multimedia sculptures that make you question gravity itself. @sopopomo

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
