Paints, brushes, crayons, clay. Soft colors, bright and dark ones. Shapes you haven't tried before. When you create a work of art, you stir up a fascinating mixture of materials and ideas. Making art is a constant experiment. You try many ways of working. Your art is like no one else's because you are unique. So are your ideas and your vision of the world around you. Art is about making your ideas visible and even changing them as you work. It's about playing with materials until an idea takes hold. You'll go your own individual way on this badge. |
