TYE GINGERICH

Odd One Out (2023)
Tye Gingerich, 14, Kitchener-Waterloo Collegiate and Vocational School
(pencil crayon on paper)

This art piece was created to represent the feeling of being bullied for being unique. Many people experience bullying in their childhood, and I was no different. I would often get picked on by classmates for my unique personality and hobbies, and it would make me feel like an outcast, like the odd one out. This drawing was made to encourage everyone to embrace their unique qualities and be themselves.
