I met my art teacher Ms. J in the seventh grade and she changed me.
In her first class, she encouraged us to _________ what art meant. During the discussion about facial structure and paintings, she _________ the “golden ratio(黄金比例)”, a beauty standard and explained how Da Vinci applied it to his works to ensure they were visually(视觉上)attractive.
I couldn’t help but think that if my _________ had been measured against the “golden ratio”, my score would have been low.
I was born with a facial disfigurement(缺陷)and my face looked _________. After regular appointments with _________, my face was changed many times with little improvement. I _________ seeing myself in the mirror.
People’s strange tones and curious expressions kept telling me that I was _________. Worse still, my photo appeared in a magazine with big letters “Face similar to works of Picasso” right below. I felt ashamed.
I told Ms. J about my _________ and how my face was compared to Picasso’s painting.
“Art isn’t about what you see but about what you _________.” She comforted me and told me that our __________ appearances were our signatures that we left in the world, which set us __________ and made us beautiful. And then she showed me a picture of an old man with long white hair. “You see, Da Vinci doesn’t look too pretty, but his works __________ beauty on us,” she added.
I was touched by her words, and I wondered why I had never thought this way.
“Being compared to Picasso may seem like a shame, but it’s a(n) __________. You are unique and you are a masterpiece.”
Today, when I look into the mirror, I will remember the words of my teacher, “Beauty is subjective” and I get to know my appearance is my __________.
It takes me years to __________ that beauty is more than a cold calculation.
