During the course of numerous art classes at three separate University of Alaska campus’s I have developed a style of art belonging exclusively to me. I have grown in my ability to produce literal, figurative, and abstracted two dimensional, three dimensional, and digital artwork. I am practiced in drawing, painting, and sculpture with and without live models, stained glass, blown glass, serigraphy, etching and ceramics.

Competency in Professional Behavior
Professional behavior is expected of college students.

Word processing concepts, spreadsheet and graphics applications, conferencing, power-point presentations and electronic mail technology all apply to the career path I am actively pursuing.
