My name is Caroline, but I go by Carly. I am from Akron, Ohio and graduated from the Akron School for the Arts with a fine art focus. This past year, I studied at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon and upon finishing two semesters there, the best option was for me to transfer to OSU. Now, I am a second year BFA student deciding between an emphasis in painting or printmaking. My roommate introduced me to this program because she was applying as well, and I became enthralled at the idea of being able to practice art outside of the U.S. because it is something I have not yet had the chance to do. I have spent the past few summers in Spain and the fact that we would be able to speak Spanish on this trip made it even better. I am most excited to be able to see some of Santiago’s famous murals while we are there.
When I’m not in class, you can probably find me at the RPAC or cooking vegetables. I have a passion for weird vintage and fur coats and the entire space under my bed is dedicated to them. If you ever see me on a weekend night you may catch a glimpse of one. I have no idea what career path I am going to pursue, it is terrifying, but that is okay.
