This month we are proud to feature Daniel, a Junior at Jan Work Community School, for our Student Spotlight! Daniel is an enthusiast of drawing and painting.. Our Teaching Artist, Kristi, noticed his talent instantly and asked him about his artistic experience. Here's what he had to say:
Why do you love the arts?
I like being able to create stuff from my head.
What is a favorite piece of art you have created or a favorite time in performing arts?
I don’t know. I don’t really have something specific. I draw a lot with pencil but I actually prefer painting.
What would you say to a friend to get them interested in the arts?
There isn’t a right or wrong way. it’s just up to you and what you think.
Why are the arts so important right now, in the world we live in?
It allows people to be creative and just create from their heart.
