How the Art + Design
minor (or specific courses that you've taken) complements my career
ambitions: Art+Design has helped me on my path of my dream as I put
to the test the skills I have honed in front of my peers and
teachers for their enjoyment and critique.
It pushes me to do
better in my work and at life in general, as I love to tie my
artistic flavors into my personal philosophy and studies at school.
I can portray any emotions or problems I feel in my work.
I hope that one day I may have a career that utilizes art and
thoughtful skills together.
My most memorable art
experience was when I found my clique in art starring at
pictures of Arthur Rackam's childhood stories and fell in
love...
Favorite portfolio
piece (so far): A still life I made for my mother, I really wanted
to make her something and she had been begging me forever to make
her something special. I used watercolors and ink as my medium. I
thought of something that was meaningful to her that she could
always appreciate-the heirloom vases that were her moms that sit on
the mantle of our home.
Tools: A good
environment to relax and be myself in, I need peace and like to be
alone, I do love some good tunes preferably Zeppelin, Mayer, Jack,
Coldplay, maybe some crazy Electronica every now and then and of
course inspiration.
Favorite vegetable:
the king of all vegetables which is of course the potato... French
fries, steak fries, tots, mashed potatoes, waffle fries, baked
potato, hash browns...nom nom nom ...c'mon
