We Are All Artists – Response

I found Tim Owens’ talk to be really interesting, and weirdly inspirational. The idea that art is all about practice, is something that I was always told growing up (because of dance), but I never thought about applying it to what we do in this class. I assumed that over the course of this semester that I would get better at the assignments, but that was more about learning how to use the programs. I never thought about the fact that I was practicing a form of digital art. The bit about being more creative when we are uncomfortable was interesting. I’m not sure how much I completely believe it yet, but it is something that I will be paying more attention to from now on. He also gave very good resources, some of which I already knew about, but some of which I didn’t, so I will make sure to use those in the future.
