I love to create, and if I wasn't allowed to do so I might explode

I love to do many different kinds of creating...drawing, painting, photography, cake decorating, sculpting with regular clay or polymer, graphic art, even at work when I bake all the donuts(and decorate), pastries, and bread I feel like I'm creating, making sure that everything is a nice color and rose just right. I feel like I'm being creative with everything I do, even the simplest little thing. I love to look deep into everything around me, to find the beauty I never saw before.

I love to take walks and photograph everything around me. From the smallest bug, to the biggest tree, to the grandest sunset. I love to look "outside the box" and photograph things that people tend to overlook on a regular basis. Even moss and dirt and the "creepiest" little bug can be beautiful.

I love to take an empty piece of paper, with no intentions and all, and let my feelings take over to create a drawing or painting. If I try to do it with a certain idea in mind, it never comes out how I planned.

I get inspired by many different things. Love, hate, happiness, sadness, music, family, friends, state of mind ect. In my family, I'm surrounded my artists of many different kinds. My maternal grandmother is an amazing abstract painter, and uses mainly oil bars. She inspires me greatly because throughout everything she's been through, she never stops making art, actually she makes it a priority in life, and I think that is absolutely amazing. She was also my art teacher in elementary school, and I hope to follow in her footsteps. My mother(www.daisy919.deviantart.com) has inspired my photography side incredibly! She's always trying new cool, funky things with her pictures. She's also an amazing writer, and should really finish writing her book!!!!!!! She taught me how to bake also :) My sister does great drawings, and is amazing with black and white shadowing, but sadly she hardly ever does any :( My dad is amazing with his hands, and does some of the most awesome creative finished carpentry I've ever seen, he also did some awesome rock walls and such at my house. After that, I have cousins who are awesome, and excel in things such as writing, painting, drawing, sculpting, photography, imagination and whatever else you can be creative with. (Ashley, Dustin, Cameron, Evan, Lauren you guys are awesome!!! Don't stop!!!)

Also...to anyone who comments or favorites any of my artwork, please don't take it personally if I don't get back to you! I appreciate all of that stuff VERY much, but I am a Master Procrastinator. I was actually going to write this paragraph a while ago, but figured I could just do it later lol :)
