A Poem by Janay Watson
So here is the day we’ve all been waiting for
The day our community sees how much our creativity soars
We were taught to be teaching artists from day one
And we’ve had nothing except nonstop fun
It’s awesome being able to do what you love everyday
What more can I really say
Art is a way to express yourself in a way no one else can
You portray your thoughts and emotions in a unique way to make people understand
We may be young but we are capable of the impossible, we move people through our passion
And in our own unique artistic fashion
We have dreams, big dreams in fact
But nothing is impossible for us to accomplish
Paper making was somewhat of a challenge at first
But once you get the hang of it, your creative juices will burst
I never really knew the importance of paper until we made it ourselves
It was made out of fiber and water which required using felts
Have you ever made hats out of paper?
You’d be amazed at what you can make
Using bags, paper, and other recycled material…You just might have to use tape
I know, I know, it sounds crazy, but really is fun
You can’t knock it until you try it. The capability level is for everyone
Coming into ArtForce, we all had goals
But one thing I can say for everyone is that we all have progressed and grown
We now all have broadened our experiences and skills
As well as life lessons and friendships we’ve built.
