johnathan's Story

My passion is art.

I feel a strong passion for art, and ever since I was young I wanted to draw and make art. Most of my works incorporate fan art and things that sometimes are and are not original. Most of the time I tend to make jokes into my drawings; commentary on politics or to poke fun at serious topics, which helps me to look lighter at a topic that can lead to depression of some sort.

The reason I want to attend a summer program like CCA is to improve what I do and how I draw and how I look at things that may take a serious turn. One of my best comics that I made was one that shows Hitler trying to invade Russia and Stalin gives him a big smack on the face and says; “don’t you remember how Napoleon did?” I feel that comic could be improved upon with more training and experience. I have a dream of making animation, comics, short stories and I want to see them come to life.
