Journal 46: Art and Life

Art has always been a part of my life but I never got serious until the freshman year of my high school life. In the previous journal I have already explained why I went on the path of art. I like the freedom and I love the feeling of creating pieces of art. I hope the art colleges will clear up my doubts about my profession in art and also lead me to a major I feel confident about. I am 100% certain that I'll be going for an art major but I do not know which major to take. Frankly I want to do a little bit of everything. That is why I hope that during the freshman year I will have opportunities to take as many classes of different fields of art. From before my high school education, art classes were all very routine and planned unlike what I experience and know as art now. It was dull and boring. My high school classes of art made me want more, craved for more. I enjoy feeling of painting a blank canvas with varsities of color to create a image that was in my head. I enjoy the feeling of shaping a piece of shapeless clay into an abstract or realistic image that was in my head. Everything I create comes form me and me only no other influence. Art leaves me with my creativity, making the world my own.
