Right Brain Drawing Exercise

"In the Wild"

I have learned from doing this exercise that I can really draw things well from my head if I take my time, and do my best job possible. I enjoyed this project because it let me be really creative, and draw with my imagination.  I have never been very good at drawing animals, but I realized if I really tried to form pictures of an animal in my head, it's a lot ease than I expected.  

What I've learned

   I've learned that being an artist isn't just about having talent, but about how much you are willing to put into your artwork to accomplish something great.  Which is true with mostly anything.  My art speaks through me in ways that words just can't.  Being in art this year has helped me realize my talent in drawing.
  Something else I have learned through art this year is what great artists others can be if they put their heart into their artwork instead of just doing it to get it done.  I can see what people are like because of how they express themselves through their artwork.  People often paint, draw, sculpt, ect. something they are passionate about, but this year I feel people have found new passions and expressed more passions through their art, no matter what others thought.
  I enjoyed our art trip this year.  Cirque du soleil was very inspirational and an amazing experience I will not forget for as long as I live.  I think that everyone enjoyed and had fun at our art trip because it was so amazingly unforgettable and influential.  This year of art might be my last, and I don't want to and probably never forget anything that happened this year!
