ARTIST'S STATEMENT FOR TIMELESS OUTLOOK
This piece reflects an aspect of my perspective towards life. I believe that there is an endless treasure trove of ideas just waiting to be explored explored out there. Fostering a sense of wonder and making meaning from your observations are what I feel to be the driving forces behind art. We need not put a lid on the scope of our imagination just because our childhood days have passed. Let's embrace the whimsical, and the magic that life has to offer, with an open heart and a curious mind!

Reflection

EXPERIENCE
This semester in general has been a bit of a messy and overwhelming whirlwind! However I am very grateful that Mr.Martin made navigating Photoshop easy to learn. Though collage design and photo manipulation are not exactly my strengths, I am very excited about using what I have learned in the future to explore my creativity. It feels like a new door has been opened (to the world of imaging and photography), and I am excited to improve my skill with this medium. 

OBSERVATION
I sometimes found myself getting a bit bummed from not being able to think up of creative ideas. I simultaneously felt inspired by everything I've seen online and admired it, while also feeling disappointed by my art block. At the same time, I found that the best ideas came to me out of the blue, when I wasn't forcefully trying to conjure up one. 

FINDINGS
By the end of the module, I realised that I forgot to enjoy the process and to be free. I also found myself forcing to think of ideas outside of the box, but that didn't turn out so well. I found that my mind works best when I naturally let it wonder while I'm going about my day, or going to new places. Due to circumstances though, I was mostly confined in my room which was actually counterproductive ahah! I am definitely going to practice over the break in my own time though during the break.
