Essay: Visualize yourself as an artist in your own chosen field, what theory or theories do
you wish to manifest and why?
An artist has many art fields to choose, and if I visualize myself as an
artist in my own chosen field I would choose to be a manga artist wherein I can draw anime characters
and stories, I started liking anime when I was in elementary by watching Dragon ball z in the television,
since then, I started drawing Goku at the back of my notebooks and all of my notebooks are full of
anime drawings. As I grew up I start to watch Youtube tutorials on how to draw anime characters from
different kinds of anime, and one time during my art subject in highschool, I was required to make a
comics of my favorite show and so I made my very first manga drawing wherein I drew a scene from
Dragon ball.

If I would manifest any art theories then the theories that I want to
manifest as an artist are naturalism and realism wherein I can draw anime with realistic backgrounds
just like in many anime where the setting looks as realistic as the real place. I would like to learn how to
make my drawings look realistic as if you are looking in reality and not a drawing. I also want to be able
to draw anime characters with the proper human anatomy in which I will be able to draw the proper
posture for the characters by learning the muscle anatomy first.
 As an Information Technology student and also as a millennial, I
wanted to draw and animate them in my computer so that I can show it to my friends and
maybe to the media wherein I drew my own manga and animate my own anime, and because
today, many people are a fond of watching anime whether it’s genre is action, adventure,
thriller, romance, or spice of life. I choose being a manga artist or anime artist because it is fun
and because I have passion in doing it.
2. Reflect upon the content of one of the videos above and write your key takeaways from
the video.

I chose the video of the Story of famous titanic violinist where he

plays the nearer, my god, to thee. After reading his story while the music is playing, I suddenly
felt sad since he died doing what he loves, I imagined doing something special in your life
where you spend most of your time doing what you love, just like Wallace Henry Hartley who
is the musician who dedicates his life in playing his violin and you play it until the very last
moment of your life. I admire him for what he did, because instead of being scared, panicking,
or saving his life, he remained calm and he died doing what he loves by playing a music just to
help keep the other passengers calm as the crew members of the ship loaded the lifeboats.
Listening to the music make me feel sad because it makes me feel lonely, it makes me feel like I
want to see my loved ones, and hearing this makes me remember my lost loved ones. This
music is really good especially if it is played during a retreat session or recollection. This music
makes me want to be with my family.
