Life of an artist (Interview)

Messy crayon marks on paper, squiggly lines on construction paper. This sounds like the work of an average 5 year old. But it could be the beginning of an artist.
Cara who is a 21 year old Senior at McDaniel Collage. She also lives on a farm and is used to getting messy with animals and being outdoors, surrounded by nature. While being outdoors, she also takes pictures, because she is a photographer and an artist. Nature is the main subject of her photographs and an inspiration for her paintings and drawings. "Lately, I've been inspired by nature in my art," says Cara.
Art has always been a part of here life and she is always drawing or taking pictures. Cara says, " I've been drawing since I was old enough to make lines on paper with my crayons." People who have inspiration her to pursue this path in life, have been her parents and brother. Family is important to her and he art centers around nature & other objects found around her home.

  2. It's interesting that you point out that her art could be that of a 5 year old's, because so often in history we learn about these world-reknowned artists and then we see their paintings and wonder how they ever became famous. Maybe your friend will really make it big, haha
