My experience with art began at age six while building Legos, where I learned creativity and imagination beyond the following instructions. As I grew older, I explored drawing and coloring, improving through practice and enjoying the process more over time. In middle school, I took art classes and learned techniques like shading using pencils, painting and crayons and chalk. In high school, I expanded into ceramics and worked with clay and pottery wheels. By my senior year, I returned to drawing, painting, and ceramics in visual arts. As an autistic student, art helps me express myself and has become an important part of who I am.
