I’m Serenna Brown, a student at Mountain View High School , an artist, a figure skater, a coach. As a student I try to be at my best in school and be creative. I’m an artist who loves all kinds and tries to keep my mind open to all kinds of art even though it looks like a regular blue canvas that they could make. I love figure skating, it’s my biggest passion and I’m scared I’m losing my drive and energy even though I know I have the potential to be great. I also coach figure skating and it’s super fun to connect with the community through that and see the new generations grow and change over every season, it’s also super fun to see similar faces at my rink.
I want to be in control of my life and my decisions. Being unable to control myself is a feeling I hate. It’s so uncomfortable. I want a good work ethic Because it’s respectful and just general health. I also think it helps strengthen your relationship and trust with everyone around you and more people are drawn to you for different things. I want to keep on pushing and moving forward with drive and passion for figure skating, its one of the biggest activity that bring me so much joy and it wish to never let go of it.
I love to figure skate. I’m a coach and a student. I’ve been doing it for my whole life. I’m a part of 3 generations of figure skaters at the Winter Lodge. My grandma skated, my mom skated and now me and my brother skate. I love figure skating. I always wanted to go to the Olympics but I’m too old and I haven’t competed in a recreational rink my whole life so there was no chance of me going. Although that did get me so much more time to explore and do more things other than skating such as sailing. I sail on my grandpa’s trimaran in San Francisco bay whenever I have time and it’s always super fun. I also love to paint and draw. I got into art when I was a kid and it’s both a stress maker and a stress reliever. I also love to hangout with my friends and my lovely dog. He’s like my little brother and the light of my life. I think I would do anything to keep him alive forever.
Seeing how far I am now, I’m growing to learn a lot of things I might have never thought I would ever be able to do and it’s all new. I’m glad I’m getting out of my shell and trying new things even though it’s stressful. It’s a new experience that I’m willing to try.
I feel less out of place when other artists talk about more digital things. I feel as if I know and understand more of the technology side of art and not just the traditional watercolor and acrylic or oil paint. Although I wish I could have more time for traditional painting and not just school and Freestyle even though all this new stuff is super cool I just miss my creativity. I also feel like I’m losing my creativity because I’m getting less and less time to do the art I want to do and not the art I have to do because of school.
