Student Highlight: Noel Vestal


Interview questions:
1.) I'm 17 years old.
2.) That means I'm a Junior in high school.
3.) My favorite colors are Black, white (favorite shades for you grumpy lumps) blood red, and purple.
4.) My absolute favorite classes are Art, and Physical Education.
5.) So far I've only taken Foundations, and drawing 1 and I am currently in Wearable Arts.
6.) The medium/material I use most in art are color pencils, ink, and paint.
7.) My favorite art project was in 7th grade when I was asked to make a paper collage. It was a hand with pink and green tissue paper, and a bird in the corner. my current favorite though was the Shrinky Dink earrings where I made mine, and one of my closest friends souls, and made them into earrings. They came out so UBER KAWAII! (cute in Japanese)
8.) the most intimidating art medium is oil paint! it's a heartless, slow drying mess that I want to water down, only for it to rise to the top...
9.) I've always wanted to try and make D.Y.I dolls, when you buy a premade Barbie, monster high, bratz (ETC) doll, and remove the eyes and mouth, and paint your own face, make clothes etc. looks like a lot of fun.
10.) Obviously the number one object I'd want to draw for the rest of my life is some kind of cubism sculpture. a whole lot of angles and perspective.
11.) The most artistic people in my family are my Aunt who is an amazing artist when it comes to realism, and my Grandmother who used to paint ceramics and she is a major perfectionist.
12.) My interest in art came from my childhood. It was literally the only activity I could use to somewhat communicate with others. It was a rough upbringing before moving in with my grandparents at 11-12 years old. It was the only thing I had to do, and I just found it relaxing, and due to this I have plans of becoming a Graphic Designer.
