Hi, I'm Sammi and I am a senior at the University of Tampa. I'm originally from Glen Rock, NJ, so it's great to have lived down here in Florida the past few years. I am a psychology major, and even though digital arts is not a required course for me, I am excited to learn more about it this semester. I have always been great with computers, so I would love to further my skills in this class. I was a little nervous going into this class, however, because I have not taken many art classes before and I am not that experienced with art.
I hope that by the end of this class, I will be able to consider myself an artist! I am excited to learn how to use the various computer programs and different ways to make art on the computer. I have used Photoshop before, but I only used the simple functions on it. I take a lot of pictures with my digital camera, so it would be great to learn the different techniques on how to alter these photos. My career goal is to get into the counseling profession, most likely with high school students. Although digital arts does not exactly pertain to that career, I think it's always good to have as much computer and art experience as possible. I am looking forward to this semester and all of the different projects we will be creating in class.
