Charlotte Christovich, a senior in AP Art, usually works with mediums such as graphite pencil and pen, and she occasionally works with acrylic. She decided to take AP Art for multiple reasons: encouragement from her teacher, Quan Duong, and to gain experience building a portfolio. She enjoys art for a multitude of reasons. “My favorite part about creating art is definitely how therapeutic it is. Time always goes by so fast when I’m drawing, and it really helps me clear my mind,” Christovich said.

The decision to take any AP can be hard, but for Christovich, it seemed natural. “I’ve always enjoyed drawing and art in general, but I would say that I realized it was something I wanted to explore more deeply around the beginning of high school,” Christovich said.

Christovich has preferences about what she likes to draw and create art from. “I get inspiration from the people around me, as I really enjoy drawing figures and portraits,” Christovich said.
