Are you an artistic person? Yes. With drawing/painting etc, I'm not magnificently naturally talented, but since I was a kid I've loved drawing and painting and the more practise, the better I get. With other artistic things such as photography and writing, I've never really had to try very hard to get a decent outcome. In a way, that makes me enjoy and feel more proud of my drawing etc.
What mediums/medias do you use? Acrylics, watercolours, pencil, pen and ink, pastels.
Digital Art, Traditional Art, Photography, Literature, or Artisan Crafts? Digital Art, traditional art, photography and literature. I can't sculpt to save my life.
Do you have a favourite artist? If so, who? My favourites change a lot. At the moment, it's Patrick Caulfield (who died on Friday, which I'm very sad about - and has also caused problems, because I'm studying him for my Art coursework and I've written that he's still alive) and Hundertwasser, who was also an architect.
Have you ever been to a major art gallery such as the Tate Modern? If so, what ones? You are joking. My parents must have taken me to millions. I can't remember most of them, they've been all over the world. From what I can remember, I've been to the Tate Modern, Tate Britain, Louvre, Pompadou, Musee D'Orsay, Moderna Museet, Statens Museum for Kunst... oh I give up, I'll be here for hours if I go through them all. This is what happens when you have parents who are insistent on you getting a cultural upbringing.
Are there prints around your house? Yes, and a lot of originals too.
Do you know any artistic people? Plenty
If the answer to the above is yes, then what do these people usually use for their art work? A wide range... can't be bothered going on about it.
Did you take Art and Design at school? I'm doing it as GCSE at the moment.
Is there a certain type of art you'd really like to be good at? If so, what? Landscapes. However hard I try, they always look like blobs.
What don't you consider art? Unmade beds.
Do you believe that art is good or bad? Give your reasons for what you believe. In my opinion, all art is good, even if it's ugly or not done very well, because what I believe to be art has to have come from the heart. And that can't be bad.
