Day by day, the choices we make are influenced by graphic images that bombard us, from tv and internet

to billboards and movie posters. We have been programmed to react in certain ways to certain images.

Most prevalent of all, are images of violence.

With Today Marks the Beginning, the young ladies

of Irma Lerma Rangel Young Women's Leadership School step out into the community

to give a new spin on INFLUENCE in a positive way.

For my art work I used beads, fake flowers, crayons, markers, and my creativity. I chose the image of a rainbow. I chose it because a rainbow brings a smile to everyones face. On my artwork I put a quote from Maya Angelou's poem called the "Brave and Startling Truth". I chose that particular quote to put on my artwork because I think it would have a impact on where I live. I will take away from this project that violence really solves nothing. To be peaceful and kind no matter what.
