MY VIEW
shocking form of imagery in order to break down stereotypes, break down walls and break down barriers.
Throughout her three AP art classes or whenever she
can get her hands on pen and paper, Hubbell said she
works efficiently.
I work very fast with my pieces, said Hubbell.
People take their time with art, seeking perfection,
but I tend to work rather quickly because I make art
from my heart. I change my mind often, and I dont

Not only does Hubbell work with canvases, pencils,
paint brushes, cameras and computers, but she also
crafts with leather through a new business called New

I am a co-founder of a new leather crafting business that was influenced under the philosophies of a

Africa, Russia, Germany and now Detroit. He wanted
to show the importance of new work, new economy and
new culture by helping to provide jobs for those who
cannot get one.
She also participated in a summer internship at the
James and Grace Lee Boggs educational center where
she was able to understand her own potential through
art, voice, community engagement, social activities and
learning about where she came from.
Through this program, Hubbell said everything
is perceived as a constructive work of nature rather
than destructive; helping to form the ideas of love and
respect.

often attends the 5E Gallery to express the art of poetry

where the competition and pressure is gone; limiting
destructive forces around them.
5E stands for the five elements of hip-hop which
