Program Reviews:
Delaney Jane Traynor, Summer 2017 Participant
I think the trip provided me an opportunity to have more "experience". As an artist, we use what we know to create art and illustrations, and by exploring the world, going out of our traditional comfort bubble, meeting new people, or trying new things, we expand on what we know. This, in turn, expands on the kind of art we are capable of making, which makes us better, more well-rounded artists. This trip gave me an amazing opportunity to do just that - expand my knowledge and capabilities as an artist. Not only that, but the trip did so in a way that made me feel comfortable, relaxed, and happy!

My favorite part of this program was seeing the differences between the four different cities. I also enjoyed meeting all the people on the trip and eating some of the best Italian food I have ever tasted!

Being thrown into a new culture and studying while doing so will open up the mind, and have a drastic effect on the way one will think. That is exactly what happened and my conceptual thinking has dramatically changed in my artwork since. I would recommend traveling anywhere to have an experience as such. If it is offered again with Professor Fitzgerald, I would highly recommend it, considering you will have the opportunity to conceptualize the thinking of how a simplistic mark can change an entire image.
