============================
The birds I drew flew out to life, the little plaster elf stole my coffee, and the powerful phoenix conquered the bird kingdom with its enormous brush strokes flame. The graphite ladies are not as real as Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa but I've never stopped trying to improve.
Art and creativity are in me. I can sit for hours just to draw nonstop. Give me a pencil, I'll bring you into paper, then back to life. No, it does not have to be a pencil, just any material that can leave marks behind like rocks.
I often use visual art to express the beauty of one specific second, which won't appear for a second time despite how hard I try to mimic it. Nature beauty is one of the kinds; and natural occurrence is once in a life time. I treasure every second and want to capture those very moments.
Similar to general drawing, designing comes to me naturally. I just need to sketch, and after a long process full of effort, the sketch becomes an original and unique design. Most of my designs are clothes. My random collection currently contains more than two hundreds distinguish designs, which are not influenced by any fashion magazines or designers. Yet, from the design of a pen to the structure of a car or highways, as long as it is art, I'm involved.
I had limited access to art since sixth grade, and that makes me vulnerable for imperfection and weaknesses within my artworks. I want to have more experiences and improve myself. Then, I heard of VCU, a school that has great art program places fourth in the whole country. More than that, the campus is away from home, which allows me to have college experiences, especially at a low cost.
