I feel that my identity from when i was in high school to the person that i am today has changed dramatically. I think it would be a shame to not have a part of you as a person changed from then until now. Your given a taste of indepedence and freedom from the life that you have known for 18 years, living with your parents and having them take care of your needs to living on your own making your own decisions. Another way that my identity has changed is through the friends that i associate with. I grew up in a small town and wasnt exposed or around people that didnt grow up that same way that i did with the quote un quote "Midwestern Values". I also feel that as i get older my identity changes with exceptant of myself also the need to not need to impress others, as compared to how high school was.
I feel that my artwork has changed from high school to know because the way that i think and feel has changed. Another reason is throught the art classes that i take here in college compared to high school. The classes here in college are alot more challenging and really require you as an artist to look more into yourself compared to in high school were i feel i was so worried on making everything look exactly like what it was that i was drawing or whatever.

I feel the same way that in high school I made most of my art only to impress my teacher and peers. I love that college classes give you more freedom and our teachers push us to do more with our pieces then just complete them. Do you think it will be hard for high school students to do more challenging projects? I think we underestimate what they are capable of.
