U. Art is an integral part of my life and I worked hard and dedicated all of my time to being accepted as a student at OCAD. In terms of my specific program, Illustration can be hard to define to people who are not very familiar with the field. I always simply define it as taking a problem and solving it with visual imagery. Something I believe that is essential to many everyday tasks and possibly at YMCA Day Camp.
