Two: Something about a favourite artist.

Above is a picture of Edvard Munch's famous pastel painting, The Scream.
Edvard Munch is my favourite artist of all time, which is unusual, seeing as his style is not one that I would use myself, or is like any other of my favourite artists, such as Rauschenberg. I have never known an artist able to convey his emotions through his work like Munch, and to me, that's what art is about. It's a freedom - no rules, nothing, just your mind and emotions. My dad would disagree - he's very much a traditional artist. His work is almost photographic, in a way. That's where he and I differ.

Just a quick update today, it's getting late and i'm exhausted. :)

Zo, xo.

One: An introduction.

Hello :)

My name is Zöe. I'm a fifteen year old girl from a scally-ridden town in the North West of England.

The name of my blog comes from endless discussions with my dad and close friends about what actually can be considered 'art'. While my blog won't be primarily about art, it is something that plays a big role in my life, and so will probably be mentioned a lot. Add that to the fact that my imagination is at an all-time failure today, to come up with a half-decent blog name.

I've attempted blogs before, way back when. Each one has successfully failed due to lack of interest. Let's see how long this one lasts.

Zöe, xo.
