Ever since I was little, I can always remember myself being interested in art.  I love to draw and paint and make sculptures with clay.  Now that I am older, that has gotten me thinking about if I can carry out a career with these skills.  Also, my learning strategies come into play about what job I want in the future.

    Almost everyone I know has taken a test to see what type of learner they are.  I remember taking many in primary school.  I always ended up being a kinesthetic and visula learner.  Now that I think about it, those relate to art.

    Being a kinesthetic learner, that makes me want to actually learn by doing things.  This relates to art becasue I am creating the pictures and sculptures with my hands.  I am now thinking that insead of being an artist, I will want to have a career that is design related.  Therefore, being a graphic designer or an arcitect, will give me a hands-on learning experience.  Having a job that is hands-on will actually make me interested in going to work.  These jobs will satisfy my kinesthetic learning ability.

    Next, being a visual learner makes me learn by seeing things.  Therefore that is why I like to draw.  This could also tie into a job as an arctitect or a graphic designer because as an arctitect, I will have to look at blue prints of what is being built.  Also, being  a graphic designer will satisfy my visual learning ability because I will be looking at what is being created.  I can look at it, and then I can learn from my mistakes.  For example, if I do not like something, then I can change it to make it look more appealing to the eye.

    Having these two learning skills can open up many job opportunities fo me.  I would love to do a job that is hands on, but I do not know if my prefences will change.
