She is curious about many forms of art including architecture, drawing, painting, music, mixed media and this course was her first time creating some art herself. She graduated in December 2019 and started working as a Civil Engineer. She continues to enjoy art and spends some time drawing and painting once in a while.

"‘POUT’-RAIT 2019" GRAPHITE AND CHARCOAL ON PAPER, 16"x19" ‘Pout’-rait is a word play on self-portrait with a pout face. This is my first attempt at self-portrait and I thought the best way to do it would be portraying my true goofy self. While I started off with very little technique into the drawing, I eventually used different line weights, color gradients and adoption of various different pencils. The very important thing that I used in the drawing, which helped, was starting off with a base on the paper using Compressed charcoal.
