Hyvarinen,+E

My mission in art for these past 3 years is to be as positive about my work as possible. This, I’ll admit, hasn’t always worked out for me, but I’ve tried my hardest! All of the pieces I've chosen for my portfolio were chosen for one purpose; to show the spectrum of my skills in art. I try to dabble in all different types of art. Being stagnant in art is pretty boring, as well as being stagnant in life. Art plays a huge role in my day to day life. It’s a way of me getting out all the stress in my life in a healthy manner. It also helps with my ego; hearing people compliment my art makes me feel pretty good. It also helps me in a more universal manner. When I see all the hate and negativity in the world, I go to artists to remind myself that even in the worst of times, if one tries hard enough, they can find the light and beauty in anything. When others look at my art, I hope that like my work enough. That’s pretty much my goal. Although, my end goal for all the work I’ve created isn’t for others to enjoy, really. That’s a big part of it, yes, but mostly, it’s the pride I take in the art that I’ve created. Awards are nice, but if I’m awarded for a piece I don’t like, it means less to me than being rewarded for a piece I put time and love into. I suppose my point is that if you like my artwork, awesome! I’m thrilled that you do! But if you don’t it’s not earth shatteringly depressing. As long as I like it, the negativity doesn’t matter. I’ve been grateful for this experience, and hope that, for years to come, I still enjoy art, and have opportunities to hone in more on my skill sets. Thank you. ||
