Anneka’s Arts Award - Final say

I enjoyed piecing together my Bronze arts award and have made it as interesting as it can be for the reader.

I enjoyed choosing and researching my arts heroine/ hero in the end. I couldn’t choose my favourite so I chose them in the following categories, music artist, writer, poet…

I took a lot of time to research my chosen heroes, and feel I have definitely gained more knowledge of their work and themselves.

I very much enjoyed going to the gallery and museums and seeing and learning how powerful paintings/ portraits can be, especially as a lot of images captured feelings and emotions. Some images were hard to draw up a conclusion to what it was trying to suggest, especially one I recall which was a woman naked with just wire tightly, painfully squeezed around her body. I picked up pain, suffocation, sorrow… which then led my mind to wander.

I think the museum was an interesting and controversial place. It held a picture of a controversial “Kate Moss” alongside her junkie lover, using class A drugs, possession of class A drugs and performances of a sexual nature – yet she’s named a ROLE MODEL – what has this society come to?!

I would say though for anyone to attend as it’s very creative and an eye-catcher for all.

I really enjoyed what I have learned and sharing my new skills with other and having new experiences and making new friends.
