Tell us about a talent, experience, contribution or personal quality you will bring to the University of California.
Drawing, my personal talent, plays a widespread role in my life. I have been exposed to art my whole life. Mostly when I was young and my brother first acquainted me to it through his drawings. I use drawings as a mean of showing a part of me that cannot be seen with the untrained human eye. It helps me express myself to others around me. Although there is no such thing as a "good artist", however, to me, it means someone who shows others what is going on inside themselves that cannot be appraised, classified, or condemned by anyone other than themselves. So, in short, art is a individual quality and talent that I will bring to the University of California.
Drawing has taught me to convey through artistic expression. Show others my experiences and inner senses. I use drawing to show my self expression. I greatly appreciate art because it has taught me, through time, to be whimsical and ingenious. It has also taught me that not all things are flawless. It also shows others how I see things in my vista, even though they say that my drawings are "astonishing".
If art was not existent in my life, I know that I would be missing so much. I would not be able to do the things that I love to do each day. I am not much of a speaker, so art is a way to express myself. For many people, like me, art is a way of life, and without it they would be lost. Without art the world would be a dull and sad place. People would not be able to communicate in the same sense that art allows them to. Art shows my individualism, and at the University of California, only individualists stand out within the masses.
