I’ve been featured in a full page article with images in the a-n degrees unedited publication this year. It gave me the opportunity to talk about POST Artists, Market POST and the other things I’ve been up to since graduating last year. I can’t believe it’s virtually a whole year now. I’m looking forward to […]
