Reflecting at the end of the Course

If I could connect my art experience to anything, I would relate it to a rehab center. However, in this rehab center it is calm and different from the other ones. Many people go to rehab centers to get cured for a certain disease, issue, or sometimes advice, but instead, I went to this rehab center (art class) in order for my art skills to get cured. At the beginning of the year, I did not know the basics of art and how to draw any type of figure. Sometimes getting help at other places can be very frustrating if you cannot do the right thing and that was the problem for me. I could not please my own self by drawing the perfect picture or drawing what was assigned to do. However, in a rehab center as people keep going for help and getting advice from others, they get better and turn into a different person. Each time when I went to art class, my skills increased and whenever a new project came around my motivation also grew. All my life in different art classes, my art teachers and classmates gave me comments like "You can do better next time" or "What is that", but at the end of this course the comments that they gave me were, "Wow that is good". I remember saying at the start of this year that art has never played a huge role in my life and that I have always been terrible at it, but now I can say the opposite. I see myself drawing whenever I have the chance to, whether it is in class or watching T.V. At the end of some ones experience at a rehab center, there goal is to restore into a normal life and that is what art did, it restored my energy in life by making me do something that I love!
