"My earliest memory of wanting to become an artist is from when I was in elementary school. In the first grade, my art teacher was the first person that inspired me to pursue my dreams. I can say what influences me the most about art is that I can be myself and make creative artwork and there is no one to judge me. What also inspired me the most is when my high school art teacher pushed me to do my best and get me to where I am today. In the future, I see myself becoming an art teacher. Hopefully, I will be able to open up an art school, but for now I will continue to get better at my artwork."-Victorian Carroll
