bio
My name is Michelle Charette, I am in Culinary Arts in my 6th quarter at the Art Institute of Seattle for my Associates Degree. I like dealing with food.. creating new recipes, going through cook books, just have fun with it. Some people think or say that the oldest sibbling is suppose to be a romodel for the second child or for the following sibblings. However I do not believe it. My sister is older than me, and to say...she is not much of a romodel for me. So I believe that I am a romodel for my younger brother and cousins. I admit it was a struggle to get here, but I just remember "tough times don't last, tough people do"-John Ruby. And just believe in yourself, although there may be obsticles in your way, it's all up to you if you let them get there. Trust in your heart and goals and for sure you will make it where you want to be.

in-class writing
1)Nothing really. Everything is art, although you may not think it is. 2)Everything I look at in Seattle is art in it's own form, from a person taking pictures of fruit and vegetables, people playing a guitar with the case open for money, or a homeless man sitting back in the grass eating. 3)Massive pig statues.

reflective assessment
What I learned from this class, was to look and get a better understanding on art. Knowing that anything can be known as art such as, a homeless person sitting at the park under a tree for shade. To a baby learning how to walk, and not only people are known as art. Others like music, dancing, shadows, performance and it goes on. At first I didnt know what to expect from this class, but as it went on, it was like walking into a world of art that took you to another demension. Im not really artistic, but after this class just made me feel like I can do anything, I am real passionate about cooking. It's my art, creating food, plating it, garnishing... it's art in another form.
