How I think about art
This class has given me a better understanding of myself as an artist. I used to think that being artistic was something you were born with. You either had it or you didn't. I always figured I wasn't artistic because I always wanted to draw cartoon faces instead of real ones. This class showed me that anyone can be an artist. I learned that being an artist is actually more about creativity than skill. Maybe I can't replicate Van Gogh as well as another kid or know which colors will go the best together, but I think I do have good, creative ideas. Art is making something that expresses yourself and I think I accomplished that on a lot of my work this semester. I am much more proud of myself than I thought I would be going into this class. I probably won't take any more art classes in the high school, but that doesn't mean I won't make different kinds of art outside of school.
