Educational experience

• Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts

  Fine Arts

  2011.08-2015.07

  (4 years)

  My time at Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts strengthened my foundation as a multidisciplinary artist and designer. Through hands-on studio practice, critical theory, and exposure to diverse creative techniques, I developed strong skills in drawing, painting, digital art, and visual communication. The programme encouraged experimentation, discipline, and professional growth, and it played a major role in shaping my artistic voice and preparing me for both freelance design and arts education.
