As an artist I always use my creations as a way to express my own emotions. So when Tim Curry died, and I heard about this electric’s project. I thought it was the perfect opportunity to show tribute to a man who is so important in my life. I cried for hours, even though I had never met him. He had unknown felt so much so I wanted to make a tribute to the movie that really did it Rocky horror picture show.
About:
Alicia has been an artist for most of her life. It doesn’t matter what kind of art it is she’s constantly creating something new. Her specialty is drawing and painting traditionally except she still likes to dabble in sculpting and digital work. So Alicia is autistic, she’s never been able to articulate her emotions correctly. People consistently don’t understand what she’s trying to say or what emotion she’s trying to express and it gets frustrating. Sometimes she doesn’t even know what emotion she’s trying to express. So she turned to art. Yes, it was something that calmed her down, but it was also something that helped her expressed what she was experiencing at that time. If she was sad, whatever she created would be sad the flows of the paintbrushes even the concept. Just to express how sad she was feeling that day. If she was happy, she would paint with bright colors. Her breast strokes would be much more excited to be on the canvas. And these were ways that she was able to express to everyone around her and herself exactly how she was feeling in that moment. Art became a form of expression for her. Anytime she was anxious she would draw because it was something she could focus on without having to pay attention to her surroundings. And now arts, a way to make other people expressed their emotions through what they’re seeing through her own paintings. Whether a painting, illicits grief fear, and even past memories you never thought you could remember again. She wants her work to be a way that everyone can express their emotions through it because she wants couldn’t even express her own.
