The art work I selected for my art portfolio was chosen for a specific reason. Each piece was me trying to figure out who I am as an artist and what I’m good at. Each piece gets progressively better. I tried different mediums. I’ve tried charcoal, colored pencil, water color, and pencil. Out of all the mediums I’ve tried, pencil seems to suit me best. But who knows I can try different mediums in the future that I could be better in than pencil. When people view my artwork I want them to feel what I felt when I created the piece. I want people see and feel the emotion and love I put into each and every piece of artwork I created. I want people to look at them and be able to understand how much of my life I put into the specific pieces. Each piece of art work I’ve created has a little bit of me in them and I just want people to see that and understand. Every artist does that, put a piece of themselves into their work. You just have to look deep enough into the art to completely understand art. Art plays a major role in my life. If I hadn’t been introduced to art at a young age I wouldn’t appreciate it the way I do now, let alone be the person I am. Art helps me get to learn things about people that words can’t express. When I’m stressed drawing coloring or even doodling helps me feel better about situations I’m in. Art lets me spend time with my friends and helps me learn new things about them and how they are feeling that day. Art is, I think, a great way to learn things about the world and just people in general.
