I excel as an artist. I've been in an art school since middle school and my first year of high school. Upon switching school I enrolled in art class there and have been one of the most succesful painters in my classes. I have had my work in school galleries and also had my work reach regional level in contests. I am a yearbook layout editor, I basically organize how everything goes on the pages using my artistic skill. I also am enrolled in Advanced Placement 2D Studio Art. I keep up with my projects and have no trouble coming up with original ideas.
