"Ancesteral Learning: A Watercolor Monotype Celebrating Self-Experiential Learning and the Vitality of Water"

We have two granddaughters 6 months apart. Both girls are inspiring. I decided to try again to capture the moment of self discovery.

The back story-

With my commitment of shaping society for the better. My recent contemplation on human learning, sparked by observing my son and daughter-in-law’s newborn granddaughter discovering their toes, has deepened my belief in self-experiential learning. Inspired by this and other experiences, I have decided to create a conceptual installation at Indiana University, granting the students the opportunity to take ownership and install the work themselves.

In this watercolor monotype, I delve into the ways in which humans learn and highlight our crucial connection to water. Just as we care for an infant, it is vital that we care for and protect this precious resource.
