Today in Graphic Design 🎨✨
Our first-year students worked on color & contrast by creating bold neon portraits and bringing them to life on sublimation t-shirts. The results were vibrant, eye-catching, and full of personality!
Meanwhile, our second-year student Mariah sublimated her awesome Skater Girl design onto a water bottle 🛹💧—turning her illustration into a functional piece of art.
Love seeing creativity move from screen to product! Everyone on fire!🔥

Thinking outside the box… literally! 📦✨
Our Cosmetology students took on an “Out of the Box” Challenge where they were given a mystery bag of craft supplies and a random decade. Their mission was to create a unique hair design using those materials while bringing their decade to life.
The creativity, problem-solving, and talent on display were incredible! 💇♀️🎨
Which look is your favorite?
