post #2...Race and Gender

Women and people of color are hardly recognized for the hard work they put into art.  People mainly focus on white males art work. Its unfair to all women and people  of color. Women and people of color work hard to create art and nobody gives them the recognition they deserve. I feel that people should give as much credit and be as respectful to them as tthey are to the white male. Why is it the white male anyway? What's so special about them that they get to take away everything from women and people of color?

my very first art experience♥

i never used to be interested in art, it was always boring to me. In 4th grade in art class we had to trace someones body on a big piece of paper and then paint it. It was the most fun i ever had. Art was no longer boring to me. i saw it in a new way and now i try to make my own. Im glad I was there that day. My friends and I had painted the body far from normal. As we laughed and painted in new colors I began to appreciate art and now it makes me very happy :)
