Artist offers tips to help students develop
It’s okay to have a bad art day…
Erica van Zon is a Wellington-based artist and has completed her master’s degree at the University of Auckland in 2008.
She taught Wintec students for a couple months in 2009.
“I learned a lot about what it is actually like to live in the region”, Erica said.
She offered a lot of good tips to help students develop.
“Just enjoy, just have a good time, enjoy your friends,” she said.
She said writing skills were also important for art students, “because you need to express your work”.
“It’s okay to have a bad art day”, she said
“Just keep on reading articles and reviews, try to understand them by yourself, and try to make sense in your own words, and your own minds”, she said.
