ME, PROFESSIONALLY

 

I´m an art student at university of Chile and i´m doing my third year; I said that in my previous post, but Why I decided study that? This´s the question.

When I was a child, I didn’t have one dream job, never. I didn´t have one inspiration for my life like go to the moon or something “Wow”, maybe eat ice cream all day, but I didn´t want to have health problems; so, I wanted to study arts too, but my cousin said, “you can do that, but you need read I learn much about history” and in that moment I didn´t like study a lot. So, I ignorer my preferences and preferred to look another career. I wanted to be a veterinary, psychology, study philosophy or literature, maybe be a teacher of language at university, but I never had something what I loved more than painting.

I had many doubts, but my mom inscribed me at Liceo Experimental Artístico LEA Barroso when I was a student of “media” and I started to go to paint all the day. That was really amazing! There I learned how paint in oil, watercolor, “estracto de nogal” and “temperas”. Today I don´t regret to go at the academy, finally that´s why I study arts this year; the teacher of art at Liceo, my friends and all the experience gave me courage to decide!

The terrible was the Covid-19 for two years, I lost two years of university because nobody can go out! Yes, we can study in our house, we made that, but isn´t the same what study in person. Fortunately, this year we can go out to the “sede”, but…I miss sleep all the morning now. Yes, it´s a contradiction but I was accostumed. The hardest thing has been this; I’m so bad to stand up earlier, I hate that with all my soul.

I would like stand up more later, but I really love my career. I can paint in oil a lot, can I listen to the art all day and all is like…magical. I don´t like to do test but the art´s test aren´t so bad, maybe.

Any case, I would like to be a good illustrator and painter in the future. Give me your good vibes (?)

 

Bye bye <3
