I make art because it allows me to express myself. While I make art, I tend to feel more at peace and ease with my surroundings. I prefer to do figure drawings as well as drawing other people rather than drawing myself. My preferred media is using sharpie/marker because it creates a smooth finish on a piece of artwork. My artistic influences include: The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh and the wax sculptures in the wax museum in the city. I found them both very interesting as Vincent van Gogh's art creates a peaceful setting, and the wax sculptures fascinated me as they looked like real people. My artistic goals are to become more spontaneous with my artwork and getting out of my comfort zone as I work on a piece of art.
