Kayla Hensley is a seventeen year old student in Houston, Texas. She can frequently be found with a camera hanging from her neck and nail polish chipping from her fingers.

Two acoustic guitars, one lying on the couch seat and the other leaning upright, next to a pile of crumpled white paper, on a patterned fabric sofa with a crocheted blanket and a pillow.
Multiple birds are perched on a single wire against a cloudy sky.

ARTIST STATEMENT:

As a fifth generation texan, these photos exemplify those small moments of quiet within this never-ending state. Whether those occasions are found on the side of the feeder road or a smoke filled music festival tent, they’re always there, laying in wait and secretly hoping your eye catches them.
