I am married  and a mother of 2, a daughter ( who is 26 yrs old) and a son ( who is 12 yrs old) and I am a Grandma ( Mimi as she calls me) to a beautiful granddaughter who is 4 yrs old. *{I know, showing my age here) :) I currently work full time at a medical clinic. 
The older I get, the more I appreciate art and would love to know about it. Some art is hard for me to understand, such as abstract art, so I look forward to understanding all types of art.

So, cheers to a fun last semester!!

I am 32 years old and have 4 children, one who just enrolled in LLCC for his first semester. I am currently enrolled in LLCC for an Associates Degree in Criminal Justice, my goal is to continue my education and eventually become a Criminal Law Defense Attorney. I work as a member of management at a grocery store, which I do enjoy.I have always had an interest in art and creative expression, and enjoy finding beauty and wonder out of the imaginative creativity of different perspectives.]]> 2016-08-23 04:57:43 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119297665 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119459629 Hello everyone! My name is Narce and this is my first time at LLCC studying to become a teacher someday. I am currently a licensed massage therapist. Art to me if anything and everything. Someone that made something had to have had a vision on the final outcome. Color, shape, texture, something composed, something written, etc. I truly believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Because what could be art to ones eyes could be something different to someone else. ]]> 2016-08-23 19:27:09 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119459629 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119469872 Hello! my name is Meagan and have been a student at LLCC for a few years now. I am working towards my associates degree for criminal justice and hoping to finish my degree this year. I am almost 22 years old and I currently work at Mcdonald's but in the future I want to be a criminal evidence technician. To me, the definition of art is a way for people to express themselves and get their feelings out through drawing, painting, etc. I don't know a whole lot about art, but that is my own understanding of it. ]]> 2016-08-23 20:19:37 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119469872 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119482868 Hello, my name is Kenzie. This is my first semester at LLCC, because I am a transfer student from SIU. I am an education major, and hope to someday teach kindergarten or first grade. My definition of art is people expressing themselves through painting, drawing, writing, etc. Art is everywhere, and I believe people themselves are considered art. ]]> 2016-08-23 22:18:08 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119482868 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119698837 Hello everyone! I am 18 years old and this my first year of college! I took this art class so I can get a better understanding in art. I'v always loved looking at art, but to be able to learn it is totally different. I think art is apart of expressing yourself, how your feeling inside. You can create art in many different ways. ]]> 2016-08-24 20:20:09 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119698837 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119734595 Hello fellow classmates! I am 19 Years old. I am currently trying to get a Computer engineering degree, and hope to transfer to University of Central Florida next fall. I play Soccer at LLCC. I am terrible at drawing, painting, sculpting etc. I actually get pretty frustrated just trying to draw a stick figure... Anyways my personal definition for art is anything that a person uses to express their imagination or something that takes skill to accomplish. Therefore art is all around us no matter where we are at. ]]> 2016-08-25 02:32:37 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119734595 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119936478 Hello, my name is Madison. I am 20 years old. This is my third year at LLCC. I was slowly taking my classes and working until I finally decided what I wanted to actually study, so now I am trying to speed it up. I have decided to go to ISU and join their Health Information Management Program. I plan to go there next fall. My definition of art would be a way for people to express themselves, whether it be their thoughts, feelings, beliefs, etc. I also believe people themselves are considered art because everyone is unique. ]]> 2016-08-25 21:06:24 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119936478 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119967266 Hi, my name is Jordan Kraft and I am a sophomore now at Lincoln Land. I am a student-athlete, playing softball. I went to Princeville High School, and am now working towards an associate degree to transfer on to a four-year school. In my opinion, art is a way that people can fully express themselves and use their imagination to its full potential. People are able to be creative in the many different forms of art, whether it's a painting or sculpture, or even music and dancing. ]]> 2016-08-26 02:50:43 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119967266 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119967790 Hi there! My name is Dawn and I am currently working on some pre-reqs for my BSN. I currently work as a nurse here in town. Art to be is any external expression of oneself. Whether its painting, sculpture, or you like to draw comics or make quilts. It's you creating something that you see or feel for others to experience. I also consider art a conversation starter. 10 people can look at the same piece and walk away with something different. There are several kinds of art I enjoy and some I just don't understand. I hope to learn more throughout this class and I can't wait to see what everyone thinks. ]]> 2016-08-26 02:56:06 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/119967790 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/120076697 Hey everyone, my name is Jesse. I am 20 years old and this is my last semester at LLCC sadly. I have been coming here for almost three years and have helped teach some of the graphics courses as well as take them all myself. My major is in graphic designs which seems to have worked out because I am graphic designer at Primo designs. I would define art as a way to express a feeling in oneself or a feeling that cant be spoken. "A picture speaks a thousand words" being not bound to just a picture but also an image, or an ideal in the mind of not only one but millions. a connection so to speak or something that has meaning for sometimes even unknown reasons.]]> 2016-08-26 16:49:15 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/120076697 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/120214232 Hello, Vickie here. I am new to LLCC and Illinois moved here from West Palm Bch Florida working towards a degree in business with minor in art. i believe Art is whatever a person makes it, it is creative, different to each person. no one  sees the same thing that to me makes it great.]]> 2016-08-29 01:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/120214232 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/120732043 Hi, my name is Alexis. This is my 5th semester at LLCC; I'm just finishing up a couple prereq's for nursing school and two classes away from an associates here! I would define art as an action or an object that is beautiful.]]> 2016-08-31 02:05:46 UTC https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/120732043 https://padlet.com/joeciaccio/auhwd9ciz3/wish/121439155 Hey guys! My name is Maggie Comerford, I am 19 and am excited to see what potential my second year at LLCC holds. I play softball here but grew up playing basketball and volleyball as well. I grew up in Decatur Illinois, (not as bad as everyone makes it to be, just a tad stinky). I graduated in 2015 from a small high school called Meridian. Art to me can mean and be expressed in so many ways. From paintings, drawings, architecture, music, photography, etc. Whether we notice or not, art surrounds us daily, in many beautiful forms. (:
