“Everyone can paint and everyone should paint”
“When I was little, I said I wanted to be a famous artist. And then my mom said that artists don’t become famous until they die…which crushed my dreams”
“When my mom wanted to clean the house when I was little my mom used put me in the high chair with paper and I would just draw all day long.” Sculpture and Photography:
“I love them! But…I’m not very good at them… and I really love photography.”
Red Poles Leaning against walls (AKA Modern Art):
“I get the feelings and the emotions, I understand what they are going for but I prefer realistic.”
Not really Graffiti Art (Banksy; makes you think and raises a lot of questions)
