Dream Job

If money was no object I would without a doubt be an artist. I would love to have the chance to transfer my imagination onto a blank canvas for a living. Art is extremely relaxing to me and acts as a form of release and a way to express myself. I honesty believe there are other people in the world that feel this way as well, but they may not have the same financial privileges that I have. Because of this, if I was an artist I would teach free art classes to anyone willing their time. I would teach them how to draw and paint anything from a simple flower sketch to an extremely detailed self portrait. I would also use my art to raise awareness for homelessness, animal abuse, child abuse, domestic abuse, and bullying. My art could be put on the streets to raise public awareness, sold to raise money for charities, or just put outside so people can have a burst of creativity in their day. Becoming an artist has always been my dream, but using that career to help better the world would be an even more amazing reality.

Art

One of my biggest hobbies is art. I love painting, sketching and just overall creating pictures. I excel in comic style drawings or abstract. I have loved drawing since I was little, I was always doodling or painting all over everything. I treat art as a form of therapy, if I have a bad day I rely on art to cheer me up. When I sit down and draw, when I focus on getting the lines just right, or making the size just perfect or blending the colors to meet the shade I want  I can forget about whatever is bothering me. I take pride in my art, even if I do not always like what I have made. Putting my pencil to paper and creating something colorful and special is the best feeling in the world for me. The picture may not turn out the way I want it to exactly, but the fact that no one can recreate the picture exactly the way I made it just amazes me. Looking at a picture I have drawn I know that no one can ever create it exactly like I did, making it unique, and that's something truly spectacular. When I push my sketch book away from me and see the new image I have brought into existence sitting there that is when I feel truly happy.
