my name is jackie. a good friend of mine stumbled upon this website and referred it to me, and after looking around at the works, i can say that i am very proud to be apart of this fine community of artists. my only hope is that i can live up to the wonderful standards that have been set here ^.^ i'm currently a first-year student at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, and i'm declaring a major of illustration next semester, with minors in photography and print-making. i'm not entirely sure what i'm going to do with myself after that... but i'll think about that when i get there.
