Snow
Today is Monday and mondays are always the same. They are always lame. So it was a surprise to me when I woke up and looked at my window that it had snowed so much that two local B(Brooklyn)38 buses were stuck in the snow. And many others were stuck as well. Just watching whose who their cars were stuck in the couple of inches of snow try to get out is as funny as watching an episode of AFV. So something as simple as snow gave me a gift. The gift of humor early in the morning and a great way to spent a vacation. Who needs TV when we have all we need right outside our window.

Artist Statement
I am an artist and an artist is a creator of beauty, masterpieces, and history. I like to make art because it is free and limitless. To make art is to make something that one-day will impact the world we live in. To make people think about life in general and to think about the future to come. What I like best about what I do is that I am able to express myself.
My life’s goal and aspiration is to give back to the world thought art. Thought art I am able to create and show the world what I have to offer. I like varies subjects but here are some of the subjects that I prefer. Some of the subjects that I prefer are drawing, printmaking, photography and printing. I prefer these subjects because I feel free.
When creating something with my hands in drawing, printmaking, photography and printing. All the subjects in art deal with the use of your hands. These subjects to me are the best way to express who you are. I say this because each and every subject I like to use is a wonderful and fun way to communicate to the world how or what I feel. The process, techniques, tools and materials that I prefer to use are many.
My current process is working in a peaceful, quiet and clean area. The technique is working with or in oil paints, watercolors, pastels, collage, drawing, painting as well as other art media. I prefer these techniques because I feel comfortable working with them to make art. I learned that to become a better artist you must first have to explore your abilities. Then attempt to learn new techniques to challenge yourself. I try this every once in awhile.

Is art the best form of expression?
The definition of expression is conveying of thoughts or feelings: the communication of thoughts or feelings. For example directly to another person or through a work of art. The definition of art is a creation of beautiful things: the creation of beautiful or thought-provoking works. For instance in a painting, music, or writing. Put the two together and you have the best form of expression known to man.
To me art is the best form of expression. Many that have something to say express themselves with different forms of art. I say this because of the fact that many understand what the artist is trying to voice with their work of art. Graffiti artist for example use spray cans to precise their artwork on local buildings to the public. Others express themselves by drawing, painting, printmaking, writing as well as making music.
Art the unsurpassed form of expression that shows the world how we the people are feeling. Many use art to express themselves and don’t even know it. Just think of all those times we draw a smiley face, a doodle on our notebook or look at a print on a t-shirt that someone is wearing. Those are all forms of art that are being expressed right in front of us and we don‘t even pay attention to them. The person drawing on their notebook and even the person wearing the t-shirt with that print are all expressing how they feel in that moment.
Anyone can use art as a form of expression but few understand what the artist is trying to express. This form of expression is also a form of communicating. Communicating and expressing by the way of art to each other what’s more the world. The expression of life through the form of art. Is there anything better than that?

Can art be used as another form of language?
There are many different languages around the world. Art is one of them. To me art can be used as another form of language. We use this language of art on a daily bases without knowing. A language speaks to us.
A special secret language between artists, newcomers and the public. It’s a secret language in the way that many use it and don’t even know it. Many of us don’t notice that we speak it. Speak it by talking to others and comparing as well as sharing thoughts. It’s special because of the many different ways we use it to communicate to one another.
This form of language called art has started conversions, speeches, and even debates. Notice how the language of art can inspire a piece of writing. For instance in notes, reviews, stories, fairly tales and books are just some of the types of writing where you can find that art was an influence. This type of language gives people the freedom to express themselves in various different ways. Many writings can be found in your local library about this topic.
This language the language of art can be found anywhere. The form of this language is universal. Universal in the sense that anyone can comprehend it as well as speak it. I say this mainly because of the fact that two strangers can see a work of art and start having a conversion. The language of art then manifests this conversion between these two strangers.
