Mood: Anxious

I’m new to this whole blog experience, so bear with me!
I am honored to have made it through my first class of Art/Technology. I will say that it was nothing like I expected to say the least. I was a bit intimidated at first, but I think taking this course will be good for me. I am looking forward to take on a class that is challenging. Hopefully I will leave this semester with a different outlook on art and where I want to go with my creativity. I am excited to develop a deeper understanding of art and to explore the areas I am unfamiliar with.
I am from the suburbs of Massachusetts, and I never realized I had a Boston accent until I arrived at The University of Tampa. I have a love for art and I desire to become a better artist and brainstormer. I have the ideas but I sometimes have a hard time portraying them through my work. I plan to major in ADPR and take some classes in graphic design. Alongside graphic arts and advertising, I am also interested in music, and I envy those who are able to make music. Hopefully in this class I will develop the confidence to believe in my own work and prevent myself from holding back from creating something considered “different”. I need to constantly remind myself that there is no “wrong” when it comes to art.
