My name is Luighse Wachowiak and I am a Junior at Ronald Reagan IB Highschool. Art is a very important part of my life since a very young age. Since I could first hold a crayon in my hand I have always loved creating colorful and expressive artwork. I feel that art should be used to help one express feelings and thoughts they have that can be hard to express in words. Art can be so powerful and can evoke so much emotion and I think it can be a powerful tool to help with mental health.
Over the course of my two year I will be taking IB Visual Art I have a few important thing I hope to achieve. I wish to learn how to express my feelings, thoughts and emotions through my art. I am intrigued by art therapy and how much art can help your mental health so I hope to explore this idea more. I hope to as well explore different mediums to help me get out of my comfort zone of just using pencil and paint. |
