Intro

Cover Letter

Art is a way for me to express my emotions and I think a way to tell how i’m feeling is the subject of my current art. Although I was only in two actual art classes during my 4 years of high school, it still played a roll in my life outside too. I hope to bring it with me as I graduate and with my journey through college. I create art in many ways. Sketching, painting, digital art poetry, and especially film. As of now, I create lots of artwork on paper and especially poetry in English and even submitted a poem to Poetry Nation and made it to the semi-finals! In college and the future, I hope to have a side job of something that has to do with film. In my opinion, I think film is a form of art that is so beautiful and life changing. There’s so many movies and books that have influenced the way I perceive my life today and one of my passions is to do the same for others in a way. In college I’m going to be majoring in criminology, but film is a close second that I might switch to some day. Art has changed a lot for me these past 4 years too by teaching me patience and developed my art skills by a ton! I can’t wait to expand my horizon of art in my future.
