Kiersten
Hello!
My name is Kiersten, I'm a 19-year-old college student who attends SCAD! Right now, I'm majoring in Motion Media Design and minoring in Illustration in Entertainment. I'm very excited about the future plans and opportunities in store! I really have to thank my family for getting me this far.
I have my mom and dad, who were a little apprehensive on my career choices at first. Which is understandable! Finding a supporting career in the arts can be difficult, but they supported and believed in me enough to put me through a specialized art school. My older sister, Nadia, is very supportive of me. She even asks me to draw for her pretty often! Which I appreciate. I'm thankful for my family supporting me.
Origins of Art
I've been an artist my entire life. My first actual "drawing" was done when I was only 3 years old. Even though it was a poorly scribbled drawing of a family, my own family had it painted by another artist (my uncle) and hung it up on a wall. Ever since then, I've been drawing, coloring, and designing non-stop. I started taking my artwork seriously and considered doing it as a career during high school. I began designing and drawing digitally and eventually got used to Photoshop and Procreate. Even though I started digital art not long ago, I like to think that I've come a long way thus far.
