Myrtle Beach, SC

Hello! My name is Naomi Holmes. I'm a Junior at The Academy for the Arts, Science, and Technology, and I'm an art major. I've loved art ever since I was 4 years old. The first time I truly experienced art was when my sister made a painting of chocolate bars. Ever since then, I started getting into it myself! Anything I saw my older sister do, I wanted to do it too. When my sister made that specific painting of a chocolate bar with real foil, it made me want to start drawing as well. From that moment on, I would draw with any chance I had! At my grandparents house, at school, at work, at home. If I could get my hands on a piece of paper and a writing utensil, I was going to draw no matter what. My art grew while I was in school. My main focus was drawing people and landscapes. I would go on YouTube and and search how to draw certain things. I still go online and follow tips to improve my drawing more and more. I have two older siblings, and I'm the youngest. My hobbies are art, gaming, anime, and hanging out with my friends. The career I want for my future is unclear, but I have an interest in criminology, so I will choose that path until I have a reason to change it.
