[8-30-16] post1

hello !
i'm ellis catalán and if you don't remember me, i was the one in the adidas hat and probably touching my hair too much. anyway! i'm a senior art major, with a concentration in photography. i'm like, pretty sure astrology is real and i think expressing yourself is really important!

i didn't really know what to expect from the class, seeing as i only did it for the art credit. but! the professor seems to be passionate about art and making it easier understand for others. i think this is really important because i think "non-artists" (which doesn't exist lol) are intimidated by art out of insecurity thinking it needs to be done in a Certain Way, which it totally doesn't! so having an educator who doesn't let their students submit to that is great!
i also think that in the era that we're in, art and technology are becoming interlocked, with the rise of social media coming at it's highest. i love that! we have the power to make something amazing! so i'm excited to see the direction in which this class progresses! the teacher yelled at a student for trying to use the restroom tho, i don't really think that was cool but other than that! let's learn about art !
