Art, when expressed, is the only way to see inside someone's mind.

i'm Marci- i'm an artist. i have gone through phases of art throughout my life. as a child i loved to draw and color. growing up i started painting. when i hit high school i realized i loved photography. i was amazed that with one click of a button you could capture something in life that could cause any emotion. i loved the honesty of it. so, as a senior in high school i took up my ancient camera and decided to look at things i loved not only with my eyes but through a lense. as i have continued with photography i find myself looking for things of which i can take pictures. i look for weird angles and exciting colors. i look for things that are significant to me. photography has helped me see beauty where, earlier, i did not know it existed. it has helped me understand the calming effect of a few simple lines or the excitement felt by a splash of color.

i think everyone has a way of expressing their feelings and thoughts. some may be through music, painting or film or maybe they still haven't discovered how they want to do it. i know of some people who see artists and envy them for their talent. what i cannot wait for is when those people find their method of expression. i cannot wait for them to feel the satisfaction they will get when they see or feel something and are able to express it. we all have art inside of us. we just need to figure out how to let it out.

i'm marci and i'm an artist.
