DAWSON SHAFER
I was born and raised in North Dakota and am currently 20 years old. Since I was little, I always loved making art of all kinds, and I’m eager to continue honing my skills as an artist.
I started painting about nine months ago after I took a class at Williston State College. If it were not for having such a great teacher experience, I don’t think I would have gravitated so heavily towards painting. Now I love it, and I hope to be able to continue doing it for the rest of my life, whether that means for hobby’s sake or as a career.
Painting has helped teach me many things about life in the short time I’ve been doing it, and I anticipate many more lessons ahead. I’m thankful for the James allowing me this opportunity, and I’m also thankful for everyone who has ever supported my art and my journey.
