EvaI’m too cool for last names.

Artist StatementIt really makes no sense why I draw or paint or create any ‘art’. It frustrates me, it

never turns out the way I want, I sometimes leave it half-finished, or I just throw it away altogether. But then again, I guess it makes complete sense why I would want to create art. Because I could say I feel this way about almost anything in life…that is worth doing.

I started out only loving to draw, and I still prefer a pencil and paper over anything. It is only recently I have wandered into the world of paint. I think I fell in love with watercolor and just might give acrylic another chance. I like exploring and working with things I haven’t before, and being a little organic and not so traditional too.

Basically, I am lazy and a liar and a hypocrite. And I guess what makes art interesting is because unlike with a person, you can always point out the lazy, lying, hypocrites. I guess that is when you can tell what art is versus just a drawing, because art isn’t lazy and it doesn’t lie, and it only contradicts itself for good reason. I think I just continue drawing and painting in hopes that I can get good enough so one day I can really create art, and not ‘just a drawing.’
