150-word Answer


You hear those faraway voices cheering for your success, feel the tingle of adrenaline in your fingers, and sense the smell of victory and fulfillment right before you. As your hand glides swiftly through the air, as you give your very last best, there can be nothing else than an ecstatic feeling in your body. It’s there, and it’s up to you, the finishing act, that last brush stroke.
That last brush stroke is the reason artists paint. They create for a physical need of expression and their reward is that adrenaline-like feeling of accomplishment. I may not be Egon Schiele but I am sure it is a sentiment all artists share. As a beginner but persistent artist I feel the same way. Art has been a constant mean of revelation, a way of endeavoring into my own truths, it’s the reason I have done it for so long and the reason I desire to keep pursuing it in the future.
