When Platt College student Natasha Englehardt created a portrait of Gwen Stefani for her first Term 2 Illustrator class over a year ago, she had no idea what it would mean to her in the future. The project was to create a portrait of either themselves or someone that they admire using the tools they had learned in the class. Having been a fan of No Doubt since she was 10 years old she decided to create one of Gwen Stefani.

Here at Platt College San Diego there are many opportunities for students to take their creativity beyond the classroom. One of the recent ways Platt encouraged their Digital Media Design students to share their talents with us was through a Facebook Photo Contest. The concept was simple, convey through a photograph what a day in the life of a Platt College Student is like from their point of view. We had several creative submissions, and some even put their Photoshop skills to the test by adding extra flair to their photos.

Platt College San Diego warmly welcomes you to attend our 2013 Annual Exhibition of Digital and Fine Art created by Platt College students and teachers.
