ARTIST STATEMENT

What is the best use to all the stacks of white papers? ART!

I started sketching at age 5 and started painting one year after. I love nature and wilderness. I love
drawing and painting different aspects of nature and wilderness, including animals and fantasy animals
(such as dragons). I use art to express my creativity and my love for these animals. I also use art to
express my feelings. I often draw or paint when I am bored or when I have some free time (and it
happens a lot, by the way though I am not usually bored). I love art and the tools that make it. I hope
everyone love art as much as I do. I hope everyone love nature and life as much as I do.
