At the beginning of the quarter, students in ART 3103: Digital Painting shared what they hoped to learn throughout the course 🎨

Now, at the end of the quarter, they’re reflecting on what they gained through new techniques, creative challenges, and hands-on experience. It’s been exciting to watch their growth and see their ideas come to life throughout the quarter!
