The only reason art is my secret BFF is that I don't want to worry my parents by making them think that I will suddenly ditch my future in science to become a freelance artist living in their garage. To be honest, I really am not planning on doing that although it may be funny as a practical joke. Anyway, when your own art teacher tells you not to do art as a career, that really has an impact on you. Although, maybe he thought I would have a good career in art but would be too much competition for him so he lied to me instead. If my art teacher is reading this, that last sentence was totally untrue, right? So when I found out in high school that I had to do a creative portion for my CAS portfolio, I had a way of doing art without worrying my parents. For those few fleeting months, I was able to get high on art. (If you think I mean high metaphorically, that's not completely the case since working in a small room with open jars of oil paint and turpentine for hours can make you see things) Now is an opportunity to show you some of the art I have been doing. Just a note, some are oil/acrylic paintings and others are photos. Enjoy.
