MISCONCEPTIONS

One major misconception about art is that artists are born with all the skills they need to thrive in their trade.  The truth is like any other trade; art has to be taught and practiced. My WISE Experience started about 18 years ago with my first coloring book. Lately art has evolved from a hobby into an obsession; I eat, drink, and sleep art. ¾ of my classes are art classes. Why did I pick art? Well the truth is I didn’t really choose art, it chose me: it has grabbed me by my ankles and won’t let me go. Today I didn’t really do much; I looked up a few terms for my Photography class and started on a signature stamp for my Ceramics class. I like this idea of sharing what I’ve learned, and what I will learn through my own personal WISE Experience.
