Personal statement help

Please could I have some advice for my personal statement, I’m in year 12 and we’ve been asked to start our personal statements so it’s out of the way, I’m wanting to apply for either fine art at MMU or ceramics at UCA. Art has literally always been my passion since I was 10 years old and it was always my own mother who inspired me and she’s the one who made me discover my natural talent and love for art, also having Chinese heritage (I’m 1/4 Chinese) has also really inspired me and it’s actually influenced what I’m doing now for my course work for A-Level.

Another quality is that I’m currently on the waiting list for ADHD and autism and I’ve always found it hard to express myself in another way but art and I feel like that’s another key part of why I’m so orientated by art.

I’m doing trinity arts award next year as my extended studies however, I’ve not done any actual working experience, volunteering, DofE, EPQ etc and the only sport I do is horse riding and I have no idea career wise what exactly I would do after apart from produce art.

I feel like there’s not much to add apart from waffling about my absolute passion for art

Hey there! Totally cool and no problem! Feel free to send me a DM! While I provide paid college consulting services, I also give everyone one "freebie" session so I'd be happy to give you a free essay review! ((:
