Alyssa's Story

My passion is art. As a child, I was amazed by how my brother’s pencil seemed to dance so gracefully in his godly sketchbook. I remember peering over his shoulder as I watched his artistic freedom script itself in graphite. As I grew older I decided to give it a shot myself. The out poor of compliments from my elementary peers made me feel so odd as it was something I had never experienced before. With every new piece of work over the years I began to blossom and even begin to become noticed. I made new friends and began to feel welcomed by something that was seen as a talent given from the Gods. Although I didn’t and still don’t see my talent like this, I did adore how it brought more people into my life who not only inspired me to do more and even better. That’s why art is my passion.

Attending Designer Camp will help me pursue my passion for art by inspiring my artistic freedom, learning new techniques and expanding my knowledge of other and new art forms, getting to connect with new friends, and being inspired by the world around me.
