Artist Statement

So looking back on some of my writing I did in my early years of high school, I noticed how much of an awful writer I am ( not that I’ve gotten much better now). I did improve and mature a lot from whom I were back then. Growing up I’ve always felt as though I had to fit in but honestly that is not the case. Being so worried and caught up on what other people are doing was an huge issue for me, it was so big that I’ve lost touch of myself and what I always loved doing. I hear that one saying a lot about “Life isn’t about finding yourself, it’s about creating yourself”. You will never have to find yourself if one never lets oneself lose their self. Letting go of your traditions and how you’re raised of doing things can sometimes be an issue. There are times where I let myself go for a long period of time because I felt as though what I was doing with art wasn’t good enough. Now when I think about it…who am I trying to be good for other than myself? If I love All the different aspects of what art comes in then why give that up just to fight in. That to me shouldn’t be a question, if art is what I love I will always let art define me.

Let’s just say “art” it is my life, my inspiration, my reason for living. I enjoy every aspect of art and the different styles.  When I wake up I think, breathe, and crave my art. I love gathering inspiration from other people to help build my own mind. Art is more than just a hobby to me, I feel as though it deserves a better word but I just can’t put my tongue on it. Making art helps me express myself when I have trouble speaking out. I’ll try to have my art in my schedule as much as possible. I believe practice makes beautiful art. Make one piece of art you’ll wanna do more, addicting, it’s almost like a drug because art is EVERYWHERE, you can’t escape it.
