My name is Mikayla Saint and I am a California-born artist. I am currently attending California State University, Stanislaus in Turlock, California. I am in the Bachelor of Fine Arts program and will graduate in May 2023.

My photographic work illustrates the Jewel of the Sierra: Lake Tahoe. I have captured different scenes from around the Lake Tahoe Basin. The images show the magnificence of Lake Tahoe and its wildlife. Pollution, invasive species, and wildfires have impacted Lake Tahoe’s environment. My intention is to bring awareness to the importance of conservation and restoration of the lake, and the protection of the native wildlife.
