Trevor Stewart works on a painting titled “Alchemical So(u)n” in his Fort Collins home Feb. 12. Stewart is in his final semester at Colorado State University majoring in cellular and molecular neuroscience and minoring in chemistry. “I was trying to find a way to express myself that really captured my uniqueness,” Stewart said. “I feel like it started off in college. Beginning of college, I didn’t really go out or anything like that and just spent time in my dorm, drawing and doodling and just thinking about myself and existence. So art was kind of a way for me to process my reality and process the growth I was going through as an individual, and (I) put that into an expression through symbolism and just expression. I also started experimenting with psychedelics and art, and I feel like that really opened up the whole thing and really showed me the potential that was inside of my own mind. I feel like that’s ... to inspire the community.” PHOTO BY MILO GLADSTEIN THE COLLEGIAN
