Introduction

Hello!

My name is McKenna Kimball, and I am a junior at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks and majoring in civil engineering. I grew up in Ketchikan, Alaska, and I have three siblings who are all my best friends, I don’t know what I would do without them. My favorite animal is a shark, I actually have four large shark tattoos on my arm and I am planning to fill up my whole arm with sharks. I have many other tattoos as well, but I think my sharks are the most unique.

The type of art I enjoy creating isn’t what people typically think of when they think of art. My favorite thing to do is to give myself tattoos. Although the tattoos aren’t super detailed and shaded, they’re still something to be proud of, and I love thinking of new ideas of what to put on my body even if it is random. Now on the less extreme side, I like to draw and paint, but I don’t have a lot of time to do either. I own a couple pieces of art from very talented artists that I follow on Twitter. I would love to buy more pieces, and one day, I will hopefully be able to support all the artists that I see. I’ve never been to an art museum, but I think that if I were given the opportunity, I would love to go to one.
