Abstract

This thesis, "Well Rounded," by Kathleen E. Osterwise-Keohane, explores the intersection of life experiences, creativity, and artistic expression. The author reflects on how her upbringing, shaped by a creative mother and a scientific father, fostered her interdisciplinary approach to art. From childhood crafts to digital media and biological studies, these diverse influences have inspired her eclectic body of work. The thesis showcases her evolution as an artist, emphasizing themes of personal growth, the influence of social relationships, and the integration of traditional and modern techniques. The work culminates in a celebration of varied artistic exploration.
