DIY Realness

Some people take the "Do-It-Yourself" approach because, at least today, it's the cool thing to do. Others take it because they have to. For them there's no other choice. And with this reality comes both pleasure and pain, true creativity and real frustration. But out of it comes some of the best art too.



Ishah is a real DIY artist. She takes the good with the bad and keeps moving.
