Painting: My Art Story by Angel, 6th

My Art Story - Angel

 I started learning how to paint flowers in elementary school. I didn’t really enjoy it because
we had to draw animals and i wasn’t really good at it but i got better as time went by. At first

I started in elementary, but when I really started getting into art was this because I was really
attracted to the water colors. I like the way they get lighter when you add more water to it.

I don't practice, I just play with what I get. Whenever I get art supplies I usually play around
with all the colors. I will most likely go to the pastels first because I can mix them together
and make it look like it's fading into another color. Sometimes I have a problem getting started. When that happens to me I distract myself for a little while and then come back to it.

My art inspires me because my art has meaning to it. Each thing in my painting represents something
in my life or something I’m going through personally. My older sister plays with pain all the time.
I like the ways she uses her colors and I like the way the ending comes out.

I like my art because I like the way I can blend my colors. I can connect with my art. My art is my
feelings that I can’t express. This is my get away! There is no certain way I would teach my art form.
I would just tell everyone to have fun with what they are doing. There is no right or wrong way to do
this!
