Plz check out my story mad and any 1D lovers?
I have a fan fic too:)

.......

Galleries are so beautiful, different pieces litter the walls with vibrance. I needed inspiration for my next piece I wanted to do one for Scar's birthday. I know she loves it and maybe she'll hang it up with her picasso painting.

I stare at a collage of mismatched body parts confused.

"Francis Bacon."

"Huh?" I turn to Troy.

"The artist, Bacon, he uses collage in a distorted way to show how we can see things different and make life more messy in this way."

"Deep." I muse, he shrugs.

I look over a few more walls and look at the street art. The tag read Banksy, I remember learning about his work in art class. It was mesmerising the different cans of spray paint created different textures on the canvas, it was an explosion of colour. The painting was a motorcycle painted with all different paints and brush strokes. I was speechless.

"Neat right?" Troy said nodding.

"Its more than that, its urban culture thrown onto a wall." I sighed.

"You really love art don't you?" Troy looked at me. He wasn't wrong I was an art geek even more than Troy. We both shared our love for art but I was the one finding galleries and exhibitions researching art all day. For Troy it was an interest, but he was an amazing artist himself.

"Art, doesn't define me. I make art to define myself and I like that I don't have to do it in a certain way like with maths or science." I said.

"You should major in art." He said.
"My parents don't think art is a stable career choice."
"But Scar.." He started.

"They say she's one in a million and times have changed its tough to make it. They are not wrong." I said with a sad smile.

"That might be true Shay, but your work is truly original and worth something. Don't throw your talent away. You know you want to do art and thats why you can't decide because your heart belongs there." He said, whoa he had figured me out quicker than my parents for the las 17 years.

"I might minor in it and do my major in english.." I say.

"Why not major?"

"Life. Work. Parents." I sighed.

"You have to be you Shay, otherwise you may regret your choices. Go with what you want, have courage." He patted me on the back and moved to the next piece. I was silent, I didn't know what to say.

Was he right?

Did I need to do what my heart says?

I always listened to others maybe I should listen to myself first.

Scar was right, Troy did have the answers.
