Every semester I assign my Art 101 students to try their hand at street art, they expolre the history, look at Keith Haring, (Modern day cave drawings) and then after being instucted not to vandalize anyone's property I let them loose on the community. I even offer the use of my chalk, my driveway and my camera. Here are some results:

Write about your gifts of art making and related talents:

I think if I have been gifted with anything it is access. I have been allowed or permitted to see a lot of things that a lot of people never get to see. I have on occasion had a front row ticket to the greatest show on hearth – the human condition. So I look at one of my gifts as opportubnity, ascess to places and more importantly people or aspects of those people that not everyone sometimes anyone get to see.
I’m told I have an ability to get what I am looking for. If That is a gift, I’ll take it.
I can usually communicate with just about everyone, that’s more of an acquired skill than a gift. I can see and even dream in black & white. Oh, and did I mention I can fly?

You are going to make a list and write about these in your journal. See these, explore these, explore these attributes and gifts that you have, hold, have been given.

What are you good at?
I am a trained observer. I’m good at it.
My employers would tell you that I have a quality they require, - getting things done.
Those same employers will tell you that I am at times unorthodox.
I’ve a reputation for motivating people.
I am a collaborator, I’m very good at that.
I am honest
I am passionate
I have a work ethic.

Where do you excel?
Competition? Problem solving,

What comes naturally?
Communication
