My name is Lila Gyory. I am currently a senior in high school. I have always been a creative, artistically inclined person. Last year, for the spring semester of my Junior year, I went to The Oxbow School. The Oxbow School located in Napa, California, is a semester school that specializes in visual arts. Not only did I meet other amazing people who were incredibly talented artists, I was also able to explore different artistic forms and experiment with new mediums. I discovered a passion for bookmaking that I am still eagerly and passionately pursuing. While I don't plan on studying art in college, I do expect that it will always be a major part of my life, and I know I will continue making art no matter what.
