Rachel Crowley, an illustration major, says, "I have always loved drawing and painting since I was little. Art is my life and I plan on expressing myself until I'm old and gray. What I want out of life, isn't really to be rich, but to reach out to people with my art work. If I can make people think differently and touch people's lives because of my work, then my job is done. I also want to be happy. Money does not really matter to me. I just want my voice to be heard and to express myself about the world in the way I see it, and I won't settle for anything else. I just want people to understand what I'm thinking and hope they can relate to me. That is my ultimate goal.
