One of Fink's goals is to share her appreciation for insects.
People love to look at butterflies, but there is a beauty to spiders, too.
She also wants to convey the message that all life has value. Guidance was provided during the project by Fink's thesis advisor, Ed Kerns, Lafayette's Eugene H. Clapp II Professor of Art, an internationally known abstract painter. He and the other art professors at Lafayette have provided Fink with encouragement during her time at Lafayette. They've always been so helpful, even before I got here. That's why I decided on the school.
