“I think artists almost always end up turning to what’s around them, what’s in their environment or outside their window
Rothenberg Susan. “Urban art design”. The place where we dwell: reading and writing about New York City. Eds. Juanita But, Mark Noonan, and Sean Scanlan. Dubuque, IA: Kendall Hunt, 2012. 128. Print.
The reason I picked this is because I think that Susan is right when saying this. When I came to New York from my country Ecuador. I wanted to always draw buildings. I was amazed to see how many buildings surrounded me and I just felt like drawing. I remembered drawing for 6 hours straight in 7th grade the Empire State Building because I thought it was the most amazing building. In my country I couldn’t see huge buildings like the ones in New York. Art can make people happy or sad and I believe that this is what art is all about. Is a fusion of emotions and memories together
