Oliver Ivan

Mount Pleasant, SC

My name is Oliver and I am an eighth grader who attends the Charleston County School of The Arts. We get to have art class every day, and this has caused my artistic skills to grow a lot over the last few years. When I first started art when I was young, I was not the best at art when compared to my peers. However, I had a love for art that let me look past self-comparison, and this same passion still drives me today. I enjoy realistic art styles and trying out different perspectives. I also like to incorporate deeper meanings into my works to add depth to the art. Other things that I enjoy doing out of art is to read, play tennis, and even ice skate. However, I feel like art is the hobby that resonates with me in the deepest way.
