Interview:
A gesture in the form of a drawing that was made especially for someone has the potential to make them feel good or just make them smile. Even a doodle on a napkin. Art and music have many powerful positive and negative values that can bring about change in the viewers or listeners. It can make one happy, sad, glad or mad. Many people are moved by art in so many ways.
My values were instilled in me by my parents and my art does not stray far from those values. Things that I have done creatively have helped get messages across, educated people, pointed out where something is, and explained how something works. It has made people smile and made others think about what is going on and help bring about change.
“Art and music have many powerful positive and negative values that can bring about change in the viewers or listeners.”
