Bio

My name is Alex Huang, and I have been fascinated with art my entire life and have always wanted to expand on it. I was fortunate enough to be raised in Belize and frequently visit China, I have been exposed to many cultures, natural wonders, and forms of art. this exposure sparked a curiosity inside me and fueled a desire to explore more. Throughout my life I have experimented with several forms of art such as: pencil/ink drawing, clay sculpting, digital art and photography. My other hobbies aside from art include sports, video games and traveling.  I wish to dive deeper in digital art and pursue a career of design such as architecture, interior design, or graphic design in the near future. I'm looking forward to the knowledge and skills my Intro to Art class will equip me with.
