My painting is a picture of myself. My friend helped me paint it. I looked in the mirror to draw it. After drawing I used paint. I added the black outlines last. I think I did a good job with the face. I like the blue in the background. I really enjoy making artwork. It makes me feel kind of happy about it. Making art makes me proud.
About the Artist: Sarah Strouse
I was born Indianapolis, Indiana. My name is Sarah Strouse. I started at ArtMix when I was in middle school at the Key School in Indianapolis Public Schools. I went to North Central High School for high school. I am 33 years old. I live with my dad and my brother. I recently lost my mother, Paula. I like the arts. I love making art all the time. I like making art on canvas, using markers and paint. I like showing the four seasons for my artwork subjects and sometimes different holidays. I love showing my work in the ArtMix gallery on First Fridays. I’d like to learn how to help other people with their artwork.
