On The Covers

Spring 2022

We are excited to present three fantastic magazine covers to highlight the diverse talents of our alumni artists: The delicate details of graduate student Maddie Hinrich’s oil painting and embroidery captivate the imagination; a sense of scale is revealed as Judith Braun creates a large wall drawing using only her fingers dipped in ground charcoal; and Aaron Feinberg’s visceral photo of a Hawaiian wave’s explosion is arresting and powerful.
