    Devin Chase Vancil Art and Music Scholarship
    Music and art is an expression of ones self. It helps people in numerous ways. When someone is feeling out of it, they tend to draw out their feelings or write it out by making a song. I believe theres a song for literally every emotion because there are hundreds of song genres. but for art, i don't turn to express my emotions; thats not why i like doing it. art is a ways for me to be focused and yet out pf it all at the same time. Sheldon Cooper once said something that perfectly describes my relationship with art perfectly. He said "I'm going to find a similarly menial job where my basal ganglia are occupied with a routine task freeing my prefrontal cortex to work quietly in the background."When i'm drawing, I like to watch a show or a movie to occupy my basal ganglia so that my prefrontal cortex does its best work with the drawing I'm working on. Thats why I like drawing so much; there isn't any pressure or expectations.
    Terry Crews "Creative Courage" Scholarship
    On "The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon Cooper once said "I'm going to find a similarly menial job where my basal ganglia are occupied with a routine task freeing my prefrontal cortex to work quietly in the background." Ive never heard a more relevant quote toward my emotions and intentions during drawing. When i'm drawing, I like to watch a show or a movie to occupy my basal ganglia so that my prefrontal cortex does its best work with the drawing I'm working on. Thats why I like drawing so much; there isn't any pressure or expectations. I aspire to be an art museum director in the near future. Not to display my drawings and paintings, but to show other's emotions and techniques to get their messages and feelings across on a canvas.
