Adventure Number Five.

I attended an exhibit called MIX at the Tenth Street Theatre. It was quite an inspirational time for me even though it was short lived. All of the art was beautiful but that wasn't even the part that I enjoyed the most. My high school art teacher Mrs. Bjork was one of the artists showing their work. For me it brought a sense of reality back to art that I've been missing lately. I was able to see the person that I look up to and learn from on the other side of the fence. I was able to meet her mentor. And seeing her so excited about being able to show off all her hard work made me excited. This was a simple, however; life changing experience for me. It made me realize how much I would love to possibly be an art teacher in the future. I would love to be an inspiration to young artists just as she is to me. I want to be there to show them that a future in art is not far fetched. That it isn't an unreachable goal. And seeing those artists so excited about having their work on display was living proof that art can be in my future. And that my future is art.

  1. thanks for coming! i always feel especially proud when students come to my openings. art is about so much and none of it for me is about selling your work or being famous. glad you got that.
