My Purpose

For as long as I can remember I have always been driven to draw, to create, to tell stories. I’ve also spent a good bit of time in my life trying to find ways to express myself and my ideas. Overtime I’ve narrowed the options down to my art and writing.

Over time I’ve worked to improve my skills to the point I could successfully communicate what I wanted to say. I drew and experimented independently with various mediums and styles.
But I also feel that one needs to learn the basics of traditional art as well as pursue ones own style. As such I’ve taken quite a few art classes through my school. In those classes I’ve learned basic drawing, painting, and digital media and on the side I’m learning photography.

My art work has been entered in the Texas Visual Art Scholastic Event for the past two years. The first year one of my pieces placed in the highest level and another piece was one point shy of also being in that level. This year both pieces I entered placed in the highest level and one is going to be entered in the state competition. I’ve also fulfilled all my school’s requirements to letter in art.

Outside of school assignments I practice and work to improve my skills and my range of mediums and styles by drawing and painting every free moment I can at home.

For the past three years I have been working on an off and on web-comic. I also design and maintain an online art gallery of my art work. Currently I am working on writing and illustrating a fantasy story. I also have many more ideas that I’m working on.

For my future after high school I’ve come to the conclusion that I would like to try to do what I love for a living. I feel that I would be suited to work in the animation field or in illustration, or even in sequential art. I’m a practical soul and don’t want to narrow my field down and thus lose other opportunities for employment.

Now despite all the work I’ve invested in honing my skill this far, I’ve reached a barrier. I can’t accomplish what I want to alone. I hunger for more training, more lessons, training to prepare for the work place, and the chance to meet and hang around other people with similar interests to me.
I’ve spent lots of time comparing information of lots of schools. The good reputation of your school and your curriculum interest me. I would consider myself very honored and fortunate to be accepted into your school so that I may continue on my quest to have my work express my ideas that much more clearly.

there, the first draft, I shall send it to grammar acceptable people tommorow but right now my bed is softly offering its sot comfortable embrace.
