Clemson Art Students in the Military
January 17, 2012
BFA alumni Angela Newman and David Goerk have found ways in which having an interest in art and art making has aided them in their military endeavors. David feels that he is more aware of worldly events and specifically more aware of his place in the world and his role as an artist, a navy reservist, and a member of society. Angela states, “When I’m in my ROTC mindset, I don’t think about art, but my creativity is always there. I’m good at approaching a problem from a different angle and generating a lot of ideas on how to resolve it.”
