My Creativity

Over the past few years the majority of my creative work has been done for sixth form. Whether this be through art and design with such things as paintings and drawings, or through IT and Business by creating websites, and presentations. Outside of that music has always been my way to creatively express myself; whether it be through playing guitar, or making beats. Most of my creative work has been done for teachers and has been things I have been instructed to do. Sometimes I like to draw outside of work set, and this is always for my own pleasure. 

I have always been like this because throughout my school life I took subjects which were all coursework based and had very few exams. This left me with little time outside of completing work for my own personal creativity. It was however my decision to take mainly coursework based subjects as I felt I would not be able to get enough revision done when the time for exams came around.

In the future I would like to be able to use my creativity to express myself and give others an idea of how my mind works. I would like to impress people by what they see, and influence others with the work I do.

For me the starting point in front of, seems irrelevant. I don't see how I could benefit from other peoples reactions to the piece of work, for me it is more important to see my own reaction to it. The starting point I feel drawn to is behind. This is because I feel by doing this you can gain a much greater understanding of the work and what it is all about. I feel weary of the in or through starting point, this is because I feel it would be hard to work out someone's writing process from just reading the piece. I also feel that the behind process would be a much better way of creating an interesting piece of writing.
