1) How can I show the enneagram’s influence in our daily lives and those around us?

2) My artwork depicts the unique yet encompassing nine types of the enneagram. In each type, a series of pictures will  depict an individual who is portraying his/her type influencing their personal life, and interactions with others.

3) In the making of each piece, I began with a simple beginning idea of what I wanted the picture to show about the certain type. For example, type one: the reformer. The reformer is known to be self-controlled and a perfectionist. One who is always judging and forcing themselves to meet a certain standard of perfection in life, always has a way of looking at oneself and searching for areas of improvement and consequently reprimand themselves when failing to do so. Knowing this I saw that we usually hear of people giving themselves a speech in the mirror and seeing ones reflection as a someone who’s going to do the best they can possibly be. So I began and soon I found a way so that it was not just a picture of a face reflecting off the mirror but rather a face with a personal connection to  the one the other side who was trying to tell their own reflection something so pressing only a gaze could portray, This have the picture a powerful feeling of curiosity and an ominous feel for the thoughts running through the one on the other side of the mirror.
