　　Dear x,

　　“Life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds you that you haveone” Stella Adler.

　　Where the line of normalcy is shaped differently in the eyes of artists, aseverything is relative, there exists the freedom that only artists can create –the space, colour and texture on which that line of normalcy lies, in order tomake it one at all.

　　To extent my egomania is an honest tool of my style, it is in need ofelaboration and solidifying within the disciplines and professionalisms instudying art at college.

　　As an AS Psychology student, I learnt that the perception of stress isrelative “ where I find the paranoia of my reality stressful, it is much of myescape that I share with many others to spend time doing Art & Design(currently at A2) in free-periods and after school to produce more research,drawings, developed experiments and final pieces, from my C at GCSE to an A forAS. I am also predicted an A for A2. This drive came from a particularexperience, which I'd rather not speak of More relevantly, I am experienced in etching and print-press, collagraph,photography, life sketches, multi-media and Photoshop. I have used a range ofmaterials in previous artworks: works on canvas, and acrylic, installations,multi-media works and film editing, of which I am able to use iMovie andCyberlink Power Director and have competent use of, as I take a personalinterest in film-making.

　　I have also voluntarily produced and edited advertisement films for 2competing business studies classes where I was able to help creatively andequally, providing that it was their own equipment and concept.

　　In studying English (Lit./Lang.) the analytical aspects have helped aquiredthe appropriate information behind concept. As an aspiring poet, I havecontributed poems of my own to the school’s English Literature Magazine (ofstudents works) and have written for the 6th Form monthly Newsletter, ‘Rant NRave, for which I have written poetry and articles. I have also dispersed thesecreative energies in Music Technology. At the Dubai 92.0 FM Radio Station, I wasable to take a glimpse into the radio industry, as well as accompany theradio-jockey ‘Catboy’ on air. As there were 2 other students, we organized playlists; part of the job was to understand the business aspect of airtime. In May07, I was given the opportunity to work-shadow a General Planning Manager,involving the planning of layouts and structures of building shopping malls forMajid Al Futtaim, Dubai. This helped me realize the importance of relationbetween physical demands of construction and planning.

　　I have obtained certificates and commendation letters, projectcertificates, best advertisement for Shakespeare’s 12 Night Play (playing one ofthe main characters roles as 'Maria'), intermediate snowboarding, skiing, andhave achieved the Duke of Edinburgh Bronze.

　　As I have lived in and travelled countries from Malaysia to Switzerland,France to Saudi Arabia, I have more cause to find a universal message that notonly makes us appreciate diversity, but unifies us as human beings. From aMarxist perspective, I deliberately refuse to accept the pyramid of our society.This is simply one constant idea and philosophy that even disturbs my sleep.

　　Fully aware of the competition that goes on in the media industry, with mycompetitive and somewhat cynical characteristic; I am able to criticallyself-eva luate which forces me to better myself constantly improving my skillsand techniques, adhering to the business aspects as well. Taking first yearstudies or foundation art would help me explore more skill which I am capable ina more professional and disciplined manner as well as improve specified researchwork.

　　My aspirations are based on my persistency, enabling me to work adaptivelyin the art business. I may work towards the Visual Communication, Painting,Intermedia art or Illustration, not sufficed to say the least, and followedentry into Second Year Studies to define my Specialism.

　　Yours sincerely,
