SPEAKS TO CHILDHOOD JOY.  I  

00:51.300 --> 01:00.133 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
HEAR THEM.  EVERY ACCESSORY   

00:55.833 --> 01:01.933 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
HOLDS SOME TYPE OF MEMORY FOR  

00:57.366 --> 01:06.333 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
ME. IT'S JUST COMFORTING.  I  

01:00.133 --> 01:07.733 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
DON'T THINK I APPRECIATED IT AS 

01:01.933 --> 01:08.466 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
MUCH BEFORE,  ME TURNING IT  

01:06.333 --> 01:10.800 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
INTO ART HAS GIVEN ME A GREATER 

01:07.733 --> 01:16.566 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
APPRECIATION JUST BECAUSE I  

01:08.466 --> 01:21.100 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
DIDN'T REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT   

01:10.800 --> 01:23.600 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
THEY WERE TO MY CHILDHOOD.  ALL 

01:16.566 --> 01:25.333 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
THESE ACCESSORIES  SHOWS  THE  

01:21.100 --> 01:26.066 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
EVOLUTION OF A BLACK GIRL  FROM

NOT ONLY REFLECT HER GROWTH AS  

01:36.066 --> 01:42.533 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
A WOMAN BUT THE SACRIFICE IT  

01:37.500 --> 01:45.333 align:start position:10% line:74% size:47.5%
TOOK TO GET THERE. 

01:38.366 --> 01:46.533 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
>> I LEFT MY JOB,  AND DECIDED 

01:42.533 --> 01:48.966 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
TO PURSUE ARTFUL TIME.  IT'S  

01:45.333 --> 01:50.800 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
THE FIRST TIME I'VE BEEN ABLE  

01:46.533 --> 01:52.433 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
TO GIVE EVERYTHING TO THE ART.  

01:48.966 --> 01:53.733 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
 I WAS FEELING LIKE I NEEDED TO 

01:50.800 --> 01:56.666 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
GIVE IT MY ALL IN ORDER TO DO  

01:52.433 --> 02:01.266 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
WELL. I WAS ALREADY, STILL  

01:53.733 --> 02:02.566 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
DOING LOCAL SHOWS.  BUT IT  

01:56.666 --> 02:03.966 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
WASN'T ENOUGH.  I WAS NEVER  

02:01.266 --> 02:04.900 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
GOING TO BE OKAY WITH GIVING  

02:02.566 --> 02:06.733 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
WHATEVER IS LEFT OVER AFTER  

02:03.966 --> 02:07.700 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
EVERYTHING ELSE. SO I'M LIKE  

02:04.900 --> 02:13.900 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
OKAY, I HAVE TO GIVE THIS THING 

02:06.733 --> 02:17.600 align:start position:10% line:74% size:22.5%
MY ALL.  

02:07.700 --> 02:18.500 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
>> FROM  A SKETCH TO COMPLETED  

02:13.900 --> 02:19.466 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
MOSAIC EACH PIECE TAKES ABOUT   

02:17.600 --> 02:20.800 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
TWO WEEKS. SHE REMAINS ROOTED  

02:18.500 --> 02:21.200 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
IN HER PASSION WHILE ALSO 

02:19.466 --> 02:23.100 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
HOPEFULLY INSPIRING THE NEXT  

02:20.800 --> 02:27.800 align:start position:10% line:74% size:30%
GENERATION. 

02:21.200 --> 02:29.433 align:start position:10% line:74% size:60%
>>  I THINK ART HAS THE 

02:23.100 --> 02:31.033 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
POTENTIAL  TO  AFFECT THE MINDS 

02:27.800 --> 02:36.766 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
OF THE NEXT GENERATION.  IT'S  

02:29.433 --> 02:37.633 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
IMPORTANT THAT WE NOT ONLY SHOW 

02:31.033 --> 02:38.900 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
THEM, BUT TO  GUIDE THEM AND  

02:36.766 --> 02:39.833 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
LEAVE A BLUEPRINT FOR THEM.  

02:37.633 --> 02:41.100 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
ALSO THAT WE ENCOURAGE PEOPLE 

02:38.900 --> 02:42.700 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
ALONG THE WAY. I THINK IT'S  

02:39.833 --> 02:47.600 align:start position:10% line:74% size:67.5%
IMPORTANT THAT PEOPLE FEEL 

02:41.100 --> 02:49.100 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
EMPOWERED.  WHETHER IT'S ART OR 

02:42.700 --> 02:52.300 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
NOT.  I THINK THAT'S THE TYPE  

02:47.600 --> 02:56.800 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
OF THINGS THAT CHANGE THE 

02:49.100 --> 02:58.233 align:start position:10% line:74% size:22.5%
WORLD.
