Sandy King is a sophomore at School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) in the BFA program with an emphasis in photography. She's become very passionate about photography since leaving Oxbow, particularly analog medium format cameras. She feels that SAIC has a very strong photography department and because it is centrally located in a big city, there is a lot of opportunity to meet successful working artists. She hopes that many more high school students can experience the eye opening environment that Oxbow provided to her.

Sophie Erb is on a European excursion and she's really enjoying the culture. She walks practically everywhere, hikes quite often, and the accessibility of public transportation makes the community feel really close. She's taking AP art history and currently studying the Renaissance. She just finished writing a paper on Mannerism, and in particular, a piece by Pontormo and Andrea del Sarto. She's headed to Florence to make a presentation about this piece and spend four days in museums and galleries with her class. In art class, she's learning how to paint, improving her graphite skills, and developing her ink work and says the architecture in Europe has definitely informed her work.
