Faculty

We have a great faculty. They push me to do more. My work has matured and they have had a big impact on what I’m doing.
Ernesto Lopez – Graphic Design
Venezuela
 

The instructors make you pay attention to detail and they’ve made me do things over and over again. That’s when you begin looking at details before you show it to them. It trains your eye.
Katrina Welker - Photography
Lynnwood, Washington
 

My instructors have helped me grow a lot and have helped me get to where I want to start professionally.
Kathryn Clark – Interior Design (BFA)
Enumclaw, Washington
 

I love them. They’ve definitely influenced me. I just love the critiquing because I don’t want to hear, ‘oh, you’re good, that looks great.’ I want to know what I can do to make it better and that’s what I’m getting out of it. I really appreciate it.
Karlene Minea – Animation Art & Design (BFA program)
Port Townsend, Washington
 

When I came here I thought I’d be just one person out of thousands, but the faculty recognize me, they care about me, where I’m going, how I’m doing. They’re generally very helpful and insightful.
Monica Marcil – Graphic Design
Helena, Montana
 

It’s good to get other people’s feedback. You get another point of view. They see things differently than you see things and it helps to make (your design) better.
