Name: Lia Rodriguez

Pronouns: She/Her

​

I am 17 years old and from Chicago. I began to draw when I was around 3 years old and I was able to grow my skills because I have taken art classes all throughout elementary school. In middle school, we were allowed to choose our electives and I always chose the visual art option because I have always loved making art. I continued to take art classes in high school and plan to major in art in college. I am generally inspired to make art based on nature with fantasy elements and I like to experiment with different mediums to do so.
