Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by the arts. Ever since I was little, the world of the arts captivated me to the extent of me getting into the arts today. The role that my art plays in my life is that it helps me express my emotions, dreams, views of the world, along with my voice. With Studying Fine Art at the Academy of art University, I can get the right to “be yourself” in a way, that gives me, the artist, the freedom to paint/draw what-what I please, in me own creative way. But to me personally. I feel that I still need to find 'myself ' ', to figure out what makes me unique and different to the other artist in my field.
My Personal Goals and Philosophy
My short term goals while I am still in the University is to make it through this semester and hopefully by the time this year ends, I would have finally found what makes me an artist. That once I have found what makes my unique in the art world, and when I graduate I can keep what I found and bring it to my career. And how can my artwork make a difference in the word and to viewers? My philosophy as an artist is that every artist has a calling, whether it is to give a voice to those who have no voice or that through brush strokes, the image is given life with telling a story. The story can be told in many forms, depending on the viewers and how they see it. Their reaction or view to my artwork my change or relate to what the viewer is thinking. As my instructor, Sheldon Greenberg, stated in my interview with him is " Sometimes in not really about not just having, I mean I 've seen students that come into this school with amazing talent", they now how to paint and draw, "but they don 't know how to compose a good painting". He also states that "the part of ...

“Never underestimate your own strength. You were born for a purpose and are blessed with the power to achieve it” (Leon Brown). I have this quote printed out and on the wall next to my door so I can see it every day as a reminder to myself. I believe that we all have a purpose on this earth and that everything we go through on the journey there has a reason whether to teach a lesson or set an example. We have places where we want to end up and goals we want to achieve. We set these goals and dreams to help us fulfill the purpose we see for ourselves. I believe my purpose is to help people in their times of need. To fulfill my purpose, I will need to use my personal, academic and career goals to create a pathway to get to where I want to be
There are many things that I hope to accomplish and do when I get older. I want to improve and accomplish different things for myself in my career that I choose, in my material goals, and spiritually. I'm looking at the year of 2009, I will be out of college and be on my feet, hopefully. I have high expectations for myself and hope to accomplish as many of my dreams and goals as I can throughout my life.
My father always told me that my life is a blank canvas waiting for me to paint my future upon it. As I stand here before my fellow classmates, cherished friends and beloved teachers, I see more than just a graduating class, I see a group of artists waiting to exhibit their art to the world.
As I am preparing for a new chapter in my life, I have put a lot thought in about what I want out of life and what to look forward to as I get older. In order for one to achieve anything, they need to set goals to reach for. I have a handful of goals for my future, short term and long term, that I will actively work towards in my college years and beyond. In my time at UW Eau Claire, I plan to be involved and engaged in student activities on campus. Being active will help me meet new people, build a better resume, and have fun at college. At UWEC, I would like to get involved in anything musical, along with various clubs and Greek life. Similarly, another goal of mine is to have a job on campus. Having a job will not only help me make some
Art classes throughout kindergarten and up to my junior year in college have taught me so much about expression, performance and making a statement. Learning and practicing art introduces a new way of processing information, and approaching problems. In my
My Academic and Career mission statement (77) has been expanded to include my “Self-Concept” (69) and to see the acquisition of a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Communications with a minor in Creative Writing and Digital Media and Video Production as tools to empower and ensure that I am fully accountable and self-realized as an artist, writer, and independent, creative innovator using a wide variety of mediums as forms of self-expression and community engagement, education and evolution. Fully engaging in the art and academic community will allow me to grow as an artist, fulfill my life purpose and contribute to society on greater levels. Beyond monetary gain or career popularity, I will fulfill a deeper sense of purpose, involvement, and responsibility
All your life growing up, you don 't have to make any big decisions. This all changes senior year when you have to make a decision about what you are going to do with your life after high school. What you choose to do can dictate how you spend your time and money. If you do not make a choice you will not be able to move on towards being a self supporting adult. Decisions are hard to make but essential to keep moving forward.
What is my personal purpose? Is a question that I have never thought to ask myself until recently. Then when I started learning more about a personal purpose I started wondering if I have one and what it was. I never thought of myself has having a real purpose until a watched an interview Will Smith had did and he had said “When your life means something to someone other than yourself than you have a purpose.” That is when I realized that I have a purpose. My purpose is that I am the hug that let others know it is going to be ok. My personal goals is to be genuinely happy with myself and life and to make my parents proud, my career goal is to own my own business and being successful at doing so, finally, my educational goal is to get my bachelors degree and grauate with honors and even moving on to getting my masters. Having goals is important to me because I know that while I am in the process of accomplishing them I will have something great to look forward to in the end.
I was proud to see the artworks, which showed the path I am going as an artist. The biggest obstacle I have overcome so far is the fear of people not getting the message I am passing across in my artworks. As a graphic designer, one of the aim of my artworks is to pass across a message to bring awareness to dynamic topic, event and products. I used to focus on my expectation of people getting the central message of my artwork.
Ethics is basically a set of moral values and principles of one’s own or an organization. It is diagnosticating between right and wrong matter. Ethics is derived from a Greek word ‘ethos’ which means character or habits. ”Ethics is not definable, it is not implementable, because it is not conscious, it involves not only our thinking, but also our feeling.(Setzar 1709-1784)”.However, ethical values could be different among different individuals or personalities as everyone has their own precedence in life and also they have different cultures, religion , nation and nurturing according to which they prioritize their values. Moreover, these ethical values play a vast role in attaining certain goals in life either personal or professional. Goal is basically a result or achievement that one tends to acquire in life. But one shouldn’t earn his/ her goal on the cost of their ethical values. I believe that everyone should have specific plans to achieve desired goals in life but one should always emphasize on his/her own ethical values while making these plans to achieve goals. Many people however set a certain time limit to fetch their goal. I have various goals in my life that I wish to accomplish in my life. First of all I would like to discuss my personal goals. Personal goals are really important in one’s life to have a happy present and pleasant future. Personal goals are what one wants to see himself/ herself in person. My Personal goals are firstly to fulfill all the promises that I have made with my family. My family is in first place for me. I want to make my family proud of me. My father is my ideal as he is a very kind person a very good husband, a very good son and the best father on this earth. I really want to be like my...
Throughout the six years - I have developed my skills and ideas into sophisticated and well-rounded pieces of work. Over the years I have been gradually more independent - and always able to take criticism well. Any criticism I am given I use it to develop an idea to make it as strong as possible. The interest I have in analysing artist's work to find deeper meaning which has allowed me to develop meaning of my art. English and Modern Studies have allowed me to create structured essay's which will benefit me in explaining my thought process and analyse artist's
In life, is important to have values, moral and goals; which serve as motivation. Science is a big subject with many branches and purposes that inspire people to perform and obtain good results. The result and goals I aspire in the scientific world are to produce simple access and good quality to every person who need it. The way I plan to acquire it is by completing my objectives. One of my main objectives is to graduate with a Biology Degree and a Minor in Psychology; and after that pursued a higher education. This higher education would be a master, a PhD in Biochemistry and/or a career in the medical field as a Doctor. Once I have obtained one of these degrees, it would be easier to contribute in the health care of patients and in the
Imagine a painting of your life, what colors would be there? How would you show the different times in your life? Would you shade the areas where you had a hard time or use lines to show that? Being a artist that never truly finishes their work would be hard. When you are young, your enthused about painting. As you start to get older, all you want to do is visit with friends, so you miss that part of your life. Then you get back on track and work like crazy to make up wasted time. But you think to yourself “Will I ever finish my masterpiece or will it end when I do?”
Overtime the way people think can make their goals change. When I think of having goals, I think of something that I have always wanted and working hard for it. Having goals can make life easy, but having a plan on how to accomplish those specific goals will make life easier. Due to myself transitioning from high school to college, my goals have recently changed.
The arts have influenced my life in amazing ways. Throughout my life, art has been the place I run to and my escape from the world. As I’ve grown older, art has become so much more than that. Every piece of art I create is a journey into my soul. It’s a priceless way to deal with my emotions and my struggles. I create art not only because I enjoy it and because I want to, but because I have to. Somewhere deep inside there is a driving force, urging me to put my heart down on paper. I become emotionally attached to each of my pieces because they are like dashes on the wall marking my growth. Each one is the solution to a problem I have dealt with and overcome.
