In English my name is derived from a flower, in Italian it's an ever green tree with fragrant rose like flowers. My middle name comes from the first for letters of my birth name, Rose. It means peaceful, it means patient, it's like the number 16. A bright color, it's the soft pitter patter of the rain on my window as a spirit enters the world. A mothers soft lullaby, the sweet melody. It was my mothers favorite name & now it's mine. It fits like pieces of a puzzle, two perfect lovers with their fingers intertwined, a mother to its child, like two halves of a heart. It represents me in ways only true eyes can perceive. It's the way an artists' hand embraces his paint brush, how a tagger spray paints his passion, around the world they say my name funny; like it's a rare species brought to society for the first time in history. It's the peace after the war, It's a song whispered like a secret; when it passes through his lips it's soft; like and angels' touch, newly fallen snow, freshly picked strawberries on a warm summers' day. It's that passionate feeling you get from your first kiss, it's real emotion, the spirit of creativity, a single rain drop dangling from a rose petal flushed with pink. It's a singers voice with the potential to be great. I am Kamelia; known only as one other name, Real. Because that's what I am, I am me & I wouldn't have it any other way.

Creativity

 I would say that chalk art is an amazing way to express creativity! Anyone can draw something with chalk but it takes someone special to create a chalk picture. You have to blend the chalk just right to get the perfect shading and color. I think people who can do this are so talented!


Graffiti, I don't even know where to start... Graffiti to me is soo amazing! How many people in the world can pick up a spray can and create something as clearn and clean as these people have done? Yeah, anyone can pick up a spary can and spray a few letters or a messy picture but it takes true talent to spray paint a master piece. To many people it may be rebelious or ugly but to me it opens up the posibilities of new perspectives.

    When I lived in NYC the train I took into the city would always go by this one part of town where there was TONS of graffiti on the buildings. But it wasn't just gang tags--it was ART. I couldn't believe some of the things they were able to create. So cool!

    this is so cool! i love how you look at graffiti as art (as it should be) rather then just as vandalism. i agree that a lot of people think that it is so easy but it is the most looked down upon form of art out there and it requires more creativity than most other forms, its not easy and more often than not is more interesting than any other media
