Name: Trisha Anne Cleveland

Thoughts on art:I first got serious about drawing my freshman year of high school, having finally found the confidence to LEARN art. Art was a way to cope with life as a teenager and evolved into a lifelong passion. My life now revolves around creativity (in many outlets) and probably makes me one of those crazy, eccentric artist types. At least it makes life interesting.
Goals:To finish up my degree and get working in the animation/art field. I would like to someday publish my novel-in-progress on the side.
