Wk 4/Idea #4: Drawing is also a Language

This art activity was definitely fun overall. The only “frustrating” feeling I would get was whenever I would make a mistake and would be highly tempted to use an eraser and erase my mistake. Instead of erasing, I had to blend my mistake in and hope it would not be noticeable. I personally do enjoy drawing, however, I haven’t sat down to draw since I would say about my freshmen year of high school when I took my first and last art class. After completing this activity, it definitely reminded me of how much I actually enjoy drawing so I’ll definitely be trying this again.
I do believe that if I were to sit down and actually practice my art skills, or anyone for that matter, would definitely improve. Just like anything else, I do believe that “practice makes better”.
I am currently a Psych major. I believe a simple sketch can be useful in my major during an experiment when I am trying to capture a specific element or part of the study, instead of using words to describe it, I can draw what I am trying to express.
I personally believe the drawing is a language. People can communicate with each other through pictures or drawings, not needing to use words. I believe drawings can “say things that are hard to say with words”. Sometimes you can’t describe what you’re trying to express, so you can visually express that thought/thing through a drawing that can send the general message. One can also add specific details to a drawings to further express their message.
