Many thanks and gratitude go out to Dana Tanamachi for her visit October 18-21. Dana, a custom chalk letterer and graphic designer living in Brooklyn, NY, made the journey west to meet with our students and share her amazing work. Before becoming a full-time chalk artist, Dana was a designer at SpotCo and Louise Fili, Inc. in NYC. Dana recently was recognized as one of the NY Art Director Club's Young Guns for 2011.
