Sample of Student’s Work

Sam Johnson was studying to be a civil engineer when one day he decided to paint. Johnson remembers, “Just having the thought like ‘I’m going to paint today and I don’t really know why.’ So I did some paintings and they were terrible at first, but I liked doing them.” Johnson later used his painting talent and engineering knowledge to form the core of his honors thesis.
