CAS Reflection
Reflection on Art class: I have been very interested in learning art from a very young age. Especially sketching and painting scenery with water colors. I never had a good chance to get art lessons when i was in Nepal. We use to have very limited resources for arts. But when i came here, my host mom knew that i like art. So, she introduced me to Bridget wilkin art studio where the lessons are given in English and got to get an access to art resources. Bridget wilkin art studio is located in Egg and the class runs for three hours once a week on Tuesday evening from 6:30 to 9: 30. Through these activities i am able to get these following criteria:
*i undertook new challenges through unfamiliar environment such as getting into western art and learning western technique of art. Learning to paint without theoretical lesson was what we used to do but it is challenging to learn through theoretical after being used to paint without any lesson.
*i was able to increase my awareness of my own strengths and areas for growth with the availability of resources and a guardian. I could learn some of the art material quicker than others.
*i was able to develop new skills on painting, measuring papers and lines, color fusing etc.
*i was able to plan and initiate activities such as initiating what to paint or draw and how to plan for what to next step by step.
*i was able to show perseverance and commitment in my activities as i am passionate about it. I was also able to paint more than five artwork within my stay here(first year).
* i also had to understand the ethical implications involved in my art work as every art contains some sort off message in them. so, i had to be careful in choosing what to draw and paint.
Till now that i have attended the class four times and those times have been the best art lesson that i ever had. Everything was new and unfamiliar. I got the opportunity to explore through new art material and skills. I also got an opportunity to meet new people and share things. I also have continued on during art when i have time mostly small arts.
