Sheku Koroma-2/21

 Quote:“When I wasn’t at work or hustling to art events for free food, I continued to cultivate my blog. It was my refuge.”


- I can totally relate to this. The feeling of having to grind no matter the circumstances, and i emphasize with this person dearly. His refuge is doing what he loves, and that is totally fine in my book.



 "
I could feel myself shrink as my classmates would answer questions about Baroque art with ease. I worked tirelessly to keep up with my peers." pg. 20

- As someone who struggles to keep up with the class, I can totally relate. In my experience, it helped me figure out my own way of learning which is self-studying. I would always be so confused while everyone was ahead, and i didn't know what to do for a long time.


Q: "But, even with early exposure to art and art spaces, I never would have dared to dream about working in the arts in the capacity that I do now"(12).

- My experience with art is a weird one. I could always trace a high quality image and output a high quality image, but i never could draw one. It took me having to go out there into the world and look at other people's perspective, and that's what gave me insight. Also, I waas fascinated with 3 objects for a short period, and seeing the world for what it actually was helped me draw better. I still trace sometimes as a old habit or if i want to focus more on retaining quality and with precision



This picture shows an unpopular outfit to society. It isn't normal to people dress like this wherever you go, but I resonate with this, because it's different and I enjoy different. His lower body looks as if it's covered by something plastic, and im not sure what his headgear is. What important in this moment is that it's different and that it stands out, so whatever expression that this artist is trying to convey is bound to be understood or at least thought about.
