Art as a problem that can be solved makes me feel anxious. In my endeavors completing my BA in Art History 13 years ago, I had to take a couple of fine art classes. I typically opted for ceramics or art for elementary school classes. They were less intense and didn't expect you to already know how to draw/paint. There were so many fine art classes that I would sign up and couldn't hang.

As a right-handed drawer in pointed fashion, I worked in realism to create my self-portrait. I choose the 11"x14" Strathmore Drawing Paper to render verisimilitude of my facial features. I have to admit that I drew with a general outlook of what my face should look like while rarely glancing up in the mirror. However, seeing things as there and not as we think they may be makes logical sense in the long run (Edwards, 2012). In completing the extra exercises as follows, vases/faces & up-side down drawings, I found comfort in learning how to shift to R-mode, "seeing things as they exist in space and how parts go together to make up the whole" (p. 37). Practicing can lead to one's inner happy place, which I experienced while drawing the up-side down Picasso. I think I became a little addicted to drawing, because I made another up-side down drawing that was quite accurate and quickly done. I felt alert, but relaxed, overcame me while in R-mode (p. 59).
