RACHELL HESTER

It is almost certainly mainly because she acquired her bachelor’s from CSU Monterey Bay’s Visible Arts Section, exactly where artwork is intended to be noticed by the masses. Fittingly, throughout her undergraduate many years, she specialised in substantial-scale paintings. She returned to her alma mater as the direct painting assistant for the campus’ vision mural and finished up the School of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Skylight mural.
