Starting from an early age I was sorrounded by art, I took so much influence of my dad as he was constantly drawing with me and showing me how to draw, after that I was completely obsessed with drawing and creating art. As I went up into high school I started learning all the different techniques and started getting an idea of what I wanted my art to look like and what I wanted my art to represent. so when I then went to college my art started getting more detailed and I became so much more serious about my art. I started looking at artists that inspired me and someone who stuck out to me the most was Kyle blain, he’s been creating art for a long time and he’s quite a small artist, but the art he creates is extraordinary. He uses colour in so many different ways to define his paintings, he also uses his brushstrokes in such a unique way that you would immediately know it was painted by him he’s also constantly thinking off different ways to create unique art that will get peoples attention. Another artist that inspires me greatly is BANKSY I started looking at his art at a young age as my dad was a BANKSY fan, looking at bankys art and how creative and interesting it is really sat with me as I always want my art to have meaning to people and have emotion and a story behind all my art. In 5 years time I hope to see myself in my dream job which is being a tattoo artist, I aspire to be a tattoo artist as  I have always been around tattoos and I think that being able to have so many memories and meaning behind a tattoo is a beautiful thing, its something I know I will pour my heart and soul into and will try my hardest to achieve my goal in being creative with everything i do. I feel like the BA can help me with that as there’s so many things that I still haven’t tried and joining the BA will give me an opportunity to fine tune everything I’ve learned about my art and how to create good art I’m proud of.
