MEET YOUR NEIGHBORS
OLIVIA TAYLOR,
Student and Purple Lover Originally from San Francisco, Olivia is an Art and Graphic Design major at Loyola Marymount University, though she hasn’t quite decided how to use her skills after she graduates. “I love drawing and painting but there’s so many opportunities on the digital side – I really like that, too. My brother and my dad are computer science people and I’m kind of a math person also, so I like bridging the gap between the art and computer science.” Considering she’s only a sophomore, she has plenty of time to decide her fate. She loves LMU for the small class sizes, friendly professors and
the opportunity to expand her studies outside of just art. “I didn’t want to go to a really small art school because sometimes art kids can be kind of weird. I didn’t want to limit myself, I like so many different types of people.” And then there’s her electric purple hair. “Purple is my favorite color! I’ve always heard that people who love purple, like, lo-o-ove purple. And I think that’s very true. I paint a lot of purple stuff.”
