DESCRIPTION

Graduating senior Christine Hoffmann presented her digital art exhibition on Thursday, April 12, to the Lindenwood community for its grand opening that night. The ceremony took place from 7-9 p.m. with dozens of faculty, students, friends and family members in attendance. Her artwork ranges from pieces completed in programs like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. Months of preparation went into getting her pieces ready for the show, which cover her work throughout her five years here at Lindenwood. The senior exhibition is the pinnacle of her collegiate career as a graphic designer. It is a laid back social event for those in attendance where the pieces are unveiled for the first time, while guests enjoy light snacks and peruse the artwork. However, for the artist, it is a night of great pride but also one of stress as their work gets judged by their professors for the final grade.
