My name is Liliana Gonzalez. I’m a 9th grader in South Florence High School in South Carolina. I'm in the Art Magnet Program and the National Art Honors Society. I work with different mediums such as acrylic paint, color pencil, watercolor, and alcohol markers. I worked with acrylic paint two years ago when the pandemic started. It was a Christmas gift from my parents. I taught myself how to use acrylics by watching landscape videos on YouTube and then I taught myself how to use colored pencils. In my 8th grade year, I was in my first art class with a room full of artworks on the walls. It was the first time I actually wanted to learn art, to improve, and to do my best. I’m still wanting to do all that but not just for school but for my career.
