Expectations for Art 210

Welcome to my Art 210 Projects and Assignments Blog!

Hello! My name is Kara. I am a sophomore here at the University of Tampa. My major here is International Business: Marketing and what led me to this course was that I recently added a minor in graphic design!
Upon entering Art 210 I had expectations of what I believe I will see throughout the course. As someone who is familiar with crafting design software, I expect to dig deeper behind graphics and learn the ins and outs of basic 2-D designs and to become more familiar with software. I expect to work as hard as humanly possible to excel at the tasks presented to me so that I will understand the information and build on it as I pursue the Graphic Design minor here at the University of Tampa.

Thank you for getting to know a little bit about me!
