PROSE & PHOTOGRAPHY
VANESSA CHAN
Vanessa Chan is a grade 12 student at
York House School. Writing is both a
creative and emotional outlet for her—
one that she has always loved but begun
practicing more frequently this past year.
In her free time, she enjoys taking photos
of her friends, meeting cats of all kinds,
going on walks to the beach, and baking
almond cookies.

ISABELLA DEMIANCZUK
Isabella Demianczuk was first introduced
to art through school in Grade Eight, and
immediately fell in love with the subject.
The last three years have been fundamental
to her development as an artist, and
she credits her art teachers for nourishing
and encouraging her passion. Isabella’s
favorite medium is acrylic paints, as she
finds them easy to manipulate and quick
to dry. Isabella favours these characteristics
as they allow her to make sudden
changes, and add a painterly effect to her
pieces. In the future, Isabella will be pursuing
art through an AP art course, and
perhaps even a career in the industry.

EMILY LI
Emily is an almost-9th-grader who
enjoys fawning at her pet bunny and
eating chicken nuggets. However,
lately she feels her memory is deteriorating
and thinks she should sleep
more to not only boost her memory,
but also to hopefully grow taller, as
this world is a world of giants.

passionate about. Most notably, whenever

channel that energy into her writing.
