Emily Kendrick: A Passion For Meaning

Decent Essays
Emily Kendrick is one of the brightest individuals I have had the pleasure of knowing. She could make a rainbow from black and white. Her attention to detail is uncanny, her passion for nature is astounding, and her strive for knowledge is impeccable. Since Emily was a young child she has always had a spark, I just know some day she will accomplish everything she wants in life. The very first memory I have of Emily is of when she was a chubby pink squishy baby. Her bouncing curls full of life and love. She has always succeeded her peers in the artistic level. She could make a piece of paper come to life with a thought and a pencil. Her laugh is contagious and her smile is beautiful. Every time I am around Emily, I always try to make her face

    Hi, Stephanie. I can’t tell you how much I loved, and agreed with, how you described and assessed Lamott’s writing style! I found each essay in Traveling Mercies fused wisdom with humor.

    I first saw Emily Carr’s paintings in a book of great Canadian artists within the library of my Ontario public school. In this book was the painting created in 1935 called Scorned as Timber, Beloved as the Sky.

Upon viewing the painting again in my undergraduate, I see vividly Emily Carr’s two complimentary themes, the destructive force of humanity on the natural world, and the hopeful tree reaching towards an ever expanding sky.…
