Introduction

Hello fellow Art 200 students, I am Jada Carroll. I am a junior who is very close to completing all of the nursing program prerequisites. I work full time for Access Alaska providing in-home support and caregiving to families in the community, and when I'm not working or doing course work I've been busy planning my wedding in August.

While I don't make art myself as much as I used to, I still enjoy the various types of art out there. When the opportunity arises to go to museums or art galleries, I take it. The picture I chose to showcase is by the late Steve Hanks, who has some incredible paintings that someday I hope to get prints of. I also have some art from local artists in town and around the state. When I am less busy, I hope to start creating art again.
