Article text
What does an artist do? "An artist creates things. I make paintings and sculptures. I also teach art classes." Why did you choose a career in art? "I have always had an interest in art. I am a visual learner. I also enjoy doing things with my hands, like sculpting. When I was a child, my parents gave me art materials. That helped me discover my talent for art." What obstacles have you overcome? "I have dyslexia and attention deficit disorder, so I struggled at school. I couldn't read until I was 12 years old. School got easier for me when I realized that I learned best by seeing and by working with objects." What advice do you have for students? "Let your interests and talents guide you. If you do what you like most, you will be successful. If you believe in yourself, you will find your talents. Even if you have no one to encourage you, you can encourage yourself." |
