Over the past 5 months, I have grown not only as an artist, but have also gained many other things. There were many experiences that I have been through that have been some of the most important moments and I will always cherish them. The people I have had the pleasure of working with and the friends I've gained are very important to me. They are some of the sweetest, most talent human beings.
I remember the first week of art class, I was nervous that I wasn't good enough or that I would have trouble being able to portray my ideas. After talking to the others in our class, I felt a bit more confident in my art and once the first piece was finished, I was surprised at all the support I had. I never knew a group of people could not only be so nice and kind, but also helpful and motivated to help each other out. This was also the first year I joined the art society and I can say it has helped me open up more and become more involved in the art community at our school Through National Honors Art Society, I have participated in many different events. Walking in both the Homecoming and Christmas parades were fun and I had a great time. These people are some of the most creative and inspiring people I have come across and we all shared a mutual interest in creating art. One day in 3rd period I was able to go to downtown Apex and help put up and decorate the tree for the auction. It was amazing to see everyone's small canvases all together on the same tree, giving a creative and unique vibe that none of the other trees had. I am excited to see all the events that will be taking in the next semester and plan to participate in as many of them as I can. Fast forward to now, I have not only been exposed to many new mediums, but have also received a large amount of feedback on the way I create my pieces. Seeing what needed to be fixed or touched up in each piece is very helpful. I don't want to have elements that bring my piece down, and would much rather have a piece that i'm much more satisfied with in the end. I would have never known my strengths and weaknesses until this class and I am glad that I have this information. I am ready for my art journey to continue, I can already see improvement since my first day in the class. I am curious to see how much my art will be improved by the end of the year, I still have so much to learn. I wouldn't choose any other group of people to share this experience with. Mrs. Rossi has been an inspiring and influential role model and has helped me along the way and I am grateful for the things I have been taught. The second semester will be strong and I know our class has great things ahead of us.
