Lee's Diaroma

Lee Johnson- I did my diaroma on panic attacks because I am sure it effects more people than alot of people know about. I know my family has had alot of them and it is a pretty sensative subject for me be I would reather people know about them then not. Panic attacks to me is just worring about something realy little but it just keeps getting bigger untill the point where you think you are going to die. luckly there is medicins you can take for them and they are not as commen if you take them but it is deffently something you should look up if you have any quistions our just ask me.

interview with an artist

FINE ARTIST



Interview with artist;
When I first spoke with the artist, I asked him a series of questions that related to his artwork and how art tied into his life. Bartavious Weaver, a former classmate of mine, got into art when he entered high school. It was easy to tell the artwork throughout the school was his because he was simply the best in the school. Bart was a very artistic and creative person. He would express his ideas in school pep rallies, talent shows, and even the school prom. Here are some of the questions that I asked him and some of the responses I got.
Q: What inspired you to become an artist?
A: When I was young, I had a desire to make everything standout a little bit more than it already was. I started out drawing simple things and it progressed to more creative and difficult artworks.

Q: Why do you do what you do?
A: I enjoy doing what I do because it helps brighten up society and allows me to express myself in a way I couldn’t with other actions or words. Art is important to me because every piece of art I create, I feel that it brightens up the world in hard times.


APPLIED ARTIST

My parent's friend named Thomas Voronina is someone i know that practices applied art. He works on automobiles and fixes them up in his own way. He expresses himself through this process because it is what he likes to do the most. Not only does he modify the body and performance of cars, but he also paints graphics on them.

Q: What inspired you to become an artist?
A: I have had an obsession with cars ever since I could remember. My dad told me everything about cars and led me to art. It helps me express and define myself.

Q: Why do you do what you do?
A: It is fun and enjoyable, but also helps me earn a living.
