Hey how's it going, my name's Afindi. I am a student at Ruamrudee International School in Bangkok. I created this blog page partly because I wanted to show off some of my art pieces and partly because this blog was an assignment for my art class. That's right art class, and this art class is no ordinary art class either, this is the IB higher level art class. A class where the artsy kids of the school give up close to 80 percent of their sleeping time in an effort to create just outstanding works of art. Unlike most kids in my class, I haven't had much experience in art. I stopped taking visual arts in grade 8; I never took out of school art classes, or had any training in art whatsoever. However, the one thing I do have in common with these artsy kids in my class is the passion for art. I've sure never thought I'd be able to call myself an artist, but here I am, in this gruelling art class, and I'm loving every second of it.
