Well hello there Ashley! I don't just love art, for me
it’s a life style! I don't want to sound cheesy and all ditsy since
that's not who I am; but I can always say with confidents that drawing has
distracted me on my most darkest days, and kept me going. Drawing is
like part on me (again cheesy) but it’s the truth. Only when High
School started I had learned to not give two damns on what people say and think
of me. I can show people who I am and my love for art so that they will know
the real me.
I live in a family where every child had a specific
talent. When I was younger I felt pressured since this spark that my cousins
had, whether dancing or Baseball, I didn’t have. I struggled with knowing what I
wanted to do or my “calling”. I felt different and felt a huge competitive feel
between my dad and aunt with her talented children.
One day my dad decided to introduce me to the
movie I will never EVER forget. The Little Mermaid, I had watched many stupid cartoons
where the art never intrigued me but this was different. My dad the type of guy
who would go on and on about the behind the scenes magic of every a Disney
movie and how it was made. I had fall completely in love with
Disney and hoe
they painted and drew every single scene, and just kept telling myself that I would
work for Disney, and draw all the characters. You can say that I found my “calling”.
For hours I would practice drawing the cover of the CVR tape for the Little Mermaid,
and would get frustrated every time it didn’t look the same, but practice makes
perfect! Soon I moved on to creating my own stupid little characters, and gave
them silly names to match their personalities and one day put them on the screen
(I still do today :C). I always drew for best friend and number one supporter,
giving her drawing all the time, which you would know as Jessi who I’m happy to
be in STAC with.
As I had said before drawing isn’t just a hobby it’s
a life style that I would love to pursue. I feel STAC will be a place where I could
be comfortable and be myself and not have to deal with the pressures of school
and just breathe my creativity into my paper and pencil.
So yeah… I hope that didn’t sound too cheesy…sorry
if it did, But in all I’m looking forward to this year.
