Unfortunately, I don’t drink much chi tea or watch indie
films. But my ability to pull philosophical meanings out of a piece of art,
when realistically I have no idea what it means is completely spot on. Why yes,
you can really see the tensions in the brush strokes in this area of the
painting, it really symbolizes the different phases a person goes through in
their life…blah blah blah.
The pictures below were taken by a good friend and fellow artist, Alexis- of Alexis Newton Photography.
As an artist I try to stay away from the stereotypes of
“heyyy mann, I’m just following life’s journey.” But sometimes stereotypes are
there for a reason and I am a creative non-mathematical thinker and I tend to think of everything in an artistic way.
I really do try to learn math. But I would seriously rather watch someone clip their toenails, than learn math. Especially when you have a teacher from Belarus who says "walue" and "wariable" instead of value and variable. One of my portfolios was concentrated on buildings, shown in the picture without the math problems on it.
I do have a weird fetish of collecting old polaroid cameras
and buy a new sketch book practically every time I go into hobby lobby. So
there’s that.
My senior portfolio in high school was concentrated on hands.
I have been drawing my whole life and never really took any
art classes. My junior and senior year I did AP art. We had to create a
24-piece portfolio by the end of the school year. So technically I’ve never
really had any formal instruction until my freshman year of college.
During college I am wanting to have a focus of painting. This painting is based off of my 5 year old cousin.
