As an artist, I engaged myself in several art practices during my university semesters, such as research, project design, and implementation in art.

• Fine-Tuning Fine my Motor Skills
Growing up as a child, there are some simple things like holding a paintbrush, making drawings with pens, pencils, or crayons, and cutting with scissors that were so important for the development of my fine motor skills.
First I started by drawing shapes like drawing a circle, drawing a square, and drawing rectangles.

• Confidence
Mastering a subject in art suddenly builds my confidence, so many special things about participating in the arts. Try using materials that make visual stories so magical, and it helps me feel more confident. As I improve and see my own progress, my self-confidence continues to grow.
My confidence continued to grow stronger, and since my degree in Visual Communication at the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria, I’ll never regret the choices I made early on while in art class.

While learning Drawing, painting, and sculpting help me to develop visual skills. Art has gone a long way in my life by teaching me how to interpret, criticize, and use visual information in everyday life, and how to make choices based on that information in life.

I know me studying arts strengthened my skill of problem-solving and critical thinking skills. How to make choices and decisions will certainly carry over into other parts of life.

Arts can be challenging. Works in the art are called artwork for a reason! Being an artist I can never quit. I came to know that hard work and perseverance go a long way in life.
• Concentration Skills
As an artist I persevere my skill through a painting or a drawing, focus and concentration are imperative.

Like my collaboration in art, my studying arts makes me feel accountable for my contributions in art and to my individual art-making. Making mistakes is a part of life, and studying how to accept them, fix them, and move on.
