Gallery: Kyra Reilly (‘22)

“Honestly I am mostly a self-taught artist so I am more used to doing art at home than at school anyway, so this hasn’t really changed much. The pandemic had given me time to focus on doing more technical studies, but it also allowed me to greater pursue my personal projects (like my youtube channel 3sides1eye where I make animatics weekly) and develop my style further. I want to be an artist professionally, art is something that drives me. It’s not something that I can stop, and it’s not something a pandemic can stop either. I am constantly drawing, I have gotten in trouble a million times over for doodling in class or drawing on my arms with a pen. Art will always exist- it has existed since the cavemen times, for Christ’s sake. It is an integral part of humanity, and nothing will change that.”
