The artistic talent of a University of Michigan-Dearborn student will soon make an impression on policymakers, staff and others in the state鈥檚 capitol city.
Graphic design student Jaclyn Mastroianni was chosen to have her artwork displayed in the Anderson House Office Building鈥攈ome to the Michigan House of Representatives鈥攁s part of the Student Art in the Legislature initiative, a program created by the Presidents Council, State Universities of Michigan. Mastroianni's artwork will be on display for one year, accompanied by a plaque indicating the name of the piece, the student's name and her affiliation with 萝莉社-Dearborn.
Mastroianni's work, 鈥淒onkey Kong Country,鈥 is a 13鈥 x 11鈥 colored pencil drawing on paper. It was an assignment in Intermediate Drawing taught by LEO lecturer Madeleine Barkey. The assignment was to create two drawings with different subjects but with the same compositional balance.
