Job Questions:
Why did you apply for the internship? I'd worked with Mural Arts before for a school project my junior year and I'd liked their program.
What do you plan on gaining from this experience? I'd like more practice in documentation, photography, and blogging, and being able to get around Philadelphia (I'm a suburb girl) without getting lost would be a plus.
Future Plans? An artist; I don't really know yet. Hopefully a foundation to help people.
Favorite Mural? The Peace Wall is definitely my favorite one.
Personal Questions:
What's are you listening to? Right now? A genius mix off of Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls which is my favorite song.
Favorite Color? It really depends on the day... it kinda changes.. today it's blue.
Favorite Emotion? My favorite emotion would be hysterical laughter. It's so much fun.
If you could be an animal...? I'd be something cute; a horse or a panda i think.
Favorite place on Earth? My two favorite places to be are Cape May Beach and Arcadia University. I like any place that is quiet and peaceful.
Did you remember sunscreen? Oh yeah, otherwise I'd burn till I turned into a lobster.
How do you think art can change the world? I think all art, whether its music, art, dance or another medium inspires emotions. You should see something or hear it and it should change you. With enough art, we can change the world a little bit at a time.
