Artist Statement
Hi! My name is Celia Gonzalez and I've lived in Milwaukee my whole life. I am currently a Junior at Ronald Reagan High School, and growing up I've always expressed an interest in art. For me, art is an outlet for me to express what I can't verbally while still being able to have fun. Most of the time I can really only commit to a sketch or two, but I hope for my true potential to be showcased through this course.
I primarily work in just traditional pen and pencil, but when I do use other media its acrylics and watercolors. Post-Modernism and Dadaism are what inspire me most as an artist. At times, I can appreciate what it means to put work and meaning into a piece, but I also believe not everything needs meaning to it. Sometimes things just are.
