I left Japan feeling a sense of ease and contentment. From getting inspired by traditional and modern artwork to snowboarding the best powder in the world, I got just what i needed out of the trip. I had spent the fall semester stressing about graduating this spring and after i came back from Japan, i felt ready to take on my last few months in school. I never thought that i would fall in love with Japan like i did, and i am sure i will go back.
The sense of community is something that i admire most about Japan. I realized that i need to be more sharing and put others first. Our culture is more individualized than Japans, and i hope to work on becoming more giving this year as a reflection of Japan's attitude.
As far as art, I was very impressed with the work ethic and the focus on individual skillets. I hope to further my true passion of illustrating- whether it be analog or digital: i.e. painting, drawing, graphics, or web design- by practicing one of these mediums everyday. I also plan exploring ink more. In Japan i bought the calligraphy brushes, pen sets, quills, and ink.
Very blessed to have such an amazing experience,
Great things are coming...
