The Artist

Raven N Hanshaw

So I guess you want to know more about me, either you're insane or youre really gluten for punishment. My name is Raven, and you've stumbled, probably by mistake, to my Art site.... This is where I will be presenting to the world a gallery of my work.

(Cont. Below.)

I am what you call a normal 20 y/o. I live in a small town in Pennsylvania, near the Poconos. (USA).... its horribly small, close-minded and fatuous, about most things.

Being into art wasnt that bad around here, as long as you wanted to be alone. Highschool was the worst. If you weren't popular or on the football team you were deemed wierd. That never bothered me. I always had my work.

I got into art, when I as very young. I don't remember ever wanting to be anything else. It was always "What do you want to be little girl" and my anserw "An artist" Even though that hasnt changed it has more focus now. Although I am still not sure what art I want focus on. So till then I am the unfamous 'starving artist' (although from my piture you wouldnt think it, LOL).

Currentlty I am enrolled in Lehigh Carbon Community College, majoring in Fine Arts. I attended Carbon County Vo-tech, were I took Commercial Arts and graduated with honors and my NOCTI. I competed in Photography on a state level (4th place, in the state of Pa, 2001) through Skills USA VICA. I also took part in Newspaper (editor), DECA, and other activities, Before graduating in 2001.
