Growing up in North Jersey, New York has always been my city. I am constantly offended by people who think Philadelphia could even compare. But the truth of the matter is, I’ve never even really been to Philly. So who am I to judge. I’m sure it has a lot to offer, and in order to get familiar I decided to tap into one of my long lost passions.
In highschool, I was an honors art student. By my senior year I had a complete portfolio of the most beautiful work. Some where in the midst of my wrecklessness however, I completely lost sight of everything that was important to me. Now I’m a little bit older and I wish I could go back. But because we all know the past is the past, I’m willing to simply start over. Hopefully Philadelphia will rekindle my love of fine art.
I’ve grown up in South Jersey, so Philadelphia has always been “the city” for me. I love the history of Philadelphia, from Old City to the art museum, and I think you’ll find that though Philly and NYC are significantly different, they’re both very interesting, exciting places.
