Journal 47: More Art

I haven't yet seen a piece of art that has greatly influenced me in my own work yet. However the ways that some other people work have motivated me to either work as hard as they do or to not slack off like some others. Also I believe that having joined the musical production and getting involved with all parts of the production I have opened my mind a lot more to different forms of art. By piecing the different things that I have taken in from various experiences I create my own style and a larger impact. Each movie I watch now I try to learn something from it. It can be the theme or how they change the atmosphere to best suit what they are trying to portray. From viewing other people's art work I try to learn the techniques they use to create it and also why they created it. I like to take bits and pieces of what I like, change it and then combine it all together and create something new. I don't like living under another artist's shadow I want to stand next to them and see our shadows race. I know that I am far away from any well known artist out there but I'll start small in my own school and slowly expand my range of notability.
