How has art been in Roman Moser’s life? I started making art kind of young; always have had a coloring book or did something artistic. Then I went into elementary school. I took T1 and had Mrs. McDonugh as my first official art teacher. She was the one that really inspired me to become interested in art. I also found out that I was colorblind with her when I painted an African American a red rather than a more brown color. When I was in her class I saw a drawing a fifth-grader had done of a frog that looked so realistic and I wanted to achieve that greatness. It looked so photorealistic to me even though it probably wasn’t near that level, but to me it did. I have always been inspired by photorealistic artwork and have strived to become more of that type of artist. I have always had a knack for graphite pencil and enjoy working with paint too. 

     In high school, I had done art 1, 2, 3 and now am in AP art. I just couldn’t see myself going through high school without taking art as a class ever. I have learned so much from Mr. Koons as my art 1 and 3 teacher, and Miss. Hall as my art 2 and AP teacher. I owe it to them to really expanding my horizon to art and honing my art skills.  I chose AP art because I wanted to show my art skills to the best people that observe artwork and because it was my goal to be AP art my freshman year. I thought it was really cool.

     I don’t quite know how I will use art in my future. I might take up a minor in art when I go to college. Even if I don’t take art in college, I will definitely make art throughout my life for fun and maybe try to sell some of my work too. My favorite art teacher is probably Mrs. McDonough just because she was my first art teacher and who truly inspired me to get into art and realize my art potential. I think my art is amazing because, in order for it to be great, you need to believe it is great or I don’t think others will think it is. I also feel my art paints a story and I just enjoy what I do!
