A Year of Art: A Reflection

This has been a great learning year for me. I've taken other art classes in the past and learned a little bit, but in advanced art I feel like I've really become a better artist. I think this is just because I can work on my own and at my own pace. I watch a lot of tutorials on projects. I also ask a lot of questions whenever I need help. Before I was a poor artist. Now I feel like I'm a decent, respectable artist. Unfortunately, I'm not taking an art class next year, as scheduling simply won't allow it. I will try to take an art class my senior year though, and I will continue to create throughout high school. I also would like to take a computer art class in college or a drawing/sketching class. Although I doubt I'll ever be a professional artist, I still am proud of what I create. I have a deeper appreciation for professional art now. I really want to start going to art museums to what other artists have created. I can see now why greats such as Da Vinci and Monet are so highly esteemed. This year, the biggest change for me is that I plan to create art even outside of a class.
