Amir's Digital Art Blog

To Amir from the past, In the future, you are going to take a class called Digital Art One, and you're gonna do great! My advice to you is to keep being yourself, hold on to your ideas, and keep going at it. This is an example of the kind of work you're going to do. All you need to do is take your time, think, and be creative. In other words, keep being you. You'll be fine, trust me, I'm you from the future. Sincerely, Amir from the future.

I heavily disagree with any statement that undermines the value of art. I for one believe that art programs are NOT a waste of taxes. And I don't just mean painting or drawing, I mean music, theater, dance, and even literature. Art is how people express themselves. To say that high schools should stop wasting their time teaching students about art and focus on teaching them about labor in the work force, is like saying there should be no fun in the world. If life was just about getting work done, well, I can't even think of a way to accurately describe how boring that would be. Art is what gives people something fun and meaningful to do.
