Until now, I have had ample experience teaching art to learners of various backgrounds and abilities, and it has greatly enhanced my own awareness in teaching sufficiently. I believe that caring and patience are amongst the two most crucial characteristics a teacher should have. Caring is determined by the teacher’s ability to understand and encourage the student, while patience describes the tendency to focus on the long-term goal. With the right motivation, I believe that passion to learn art can be instilled in every individual.
Admission into Art College
Entering an art college without prior formal art training is indeed possible, but it can be a tough journey. To truly become an artist, you need a solid grasp of fundamental art principles. Most people can distinguish between art created by trained and untrained individuals. This distinction arises from trained artists' awareness of these fundamental principles and their regular practice, often guided by knowledgeable instructors. Artists are part of a rich and respected tradition, and if you aspire to join this tradition with knowledge and skill, there's a lot to discover. This includes gaining proficiency with various art materials. An equipped art studio provides the ideal environment for experimentation, allowing you to explore and determine which materials suit your creative process best.
