My art story

My definition of art is a way of expressing yourself. Art cannot be only one type of thing or genre. A painting is just as much as art as a piece of poetry. Art can be used to express your thoughts and imagination. Whatever you can’t speak out about, you can use art to portray those feelings for you.

Music and clothing is the type of art that is embedded into my life. I listen to music a lot and it syncs with my emotions. When I’m happy, I listen to more upbeat songs. When I’m sad, I tend to just listen to ballads and music with a slow tempo. I wear a hijab and so my hijab/fashion is another art that I use to express myself. It shows a lot about what I like and what I’m comfortable with.

My art story

My favorite form of art is anime. Anime are basically just Japanese cartoons, sounds simple right everyone grew up watching cartoons and enjoyed them. Well anime is awesome because it is so diverse and exciting. There are anime’s about sports like basketball and volleyball and there are ones about long stories of revenge and glory. Another form of art that i enjoy now is photography, i used to not think much of it but when i met my current girlfriend she introduced me to it since she is a photographer who studies in art school at the moment.  She showed me that there are many intriquite details that go into taking photos. It isn’t just pressing a button at the right time and bam your done.

Art Story

Art is all around us. In our homes, schools, work, and even outside. Many people buy different forms of art in order to match their personalities or to represent something important to them. For example, some may purchase a self portrait of themselves while some may purchase a painting of something that has to do with traditions and beliefs. Just like singing and dancing, art can be a way of someone expressing how they feel. Art comes in many styles such as paintings,  drawings, sculpting, and more.

Art to me represents history. As time changes, the style of how art is depicted changes as well. The time periods changes how people express themselves through art. For instance, the time period of the Middle Ages has completely different art compared to the period of the Renaissance.

Art fits into my life because in New York City, there is art everywhere. From murals to tattoos to even graffiti, can all be seen in NYC. Since New York City is a very diverse city, there are many museums that one can go to learn and see more about art and the changes that goes on throughout the many time periods. In this class, I would like to learn more about how art has changed over the years. I would also like to learn about the different vocabulary that are used in order to describe art.
