Title: Girl’s Night Out
Inspiration: “My inspiration for this piece was the aftermath of a fun night out with your friends. Waking up and seeing makeup, clothes and hair products spread around your room, with the memories of singing and dancing around together to get ready for a big event. I wanted to capture the staple feeling of girlhood with vivid colors, dreamlike shadows, extreme highlights and a skewed composition.”
Bio: My name is Amelia Ludwig, and I am currently enrolled in Mrs. Wezyk’s AP Studio Art and Design class at Bridgewater Raritan High School. I will be attending Penn State University in the Fall of 2024, and I plan to double major in Art Education and Fine Arts. Recently, I received my Girl Scout Gold Award, by bringing art into a community that did not have an opportunity for creative activities. I am a member of the National Art Honors Society, National Honors Society, and Thespian Honors Society. I have had the privilege of having my artwork recognized in the National Art Honors Society Newsletter and Juried Art Exhibition. In addition, I received Honorable Mention in AANJ’s Exhibition at Kean University. Shortly after, I had the same piece featured in the Morris Museum from March to May of 2024. I immersed myself in theater throughout my high school years as a dancer for the Spring Musicals and Thespian Honors Society shows. Outside of school, I am dedicated to taking dance classes every day, as well as performing with many dance teams throughout the year. This is my fifteenth year as a dancer, and I am excited to continue dancing and painting in the future.
