MEET OUR ARTISTS
Visual Art
Abigale Robles – My name is Abigale
Robles. I was born and raised in Southern
California. I have been in Tucson for 3
years now and I absolutely love it here. I
am currently a Business major at Pima. Last
semester I took ART100 with Mr. Marquis.
He helped me find my artistic style and
progress in my artistic abilities. Art has
always been an outlet for me. My family is
filled with amazing Artists. It took a lot for
me to submit my drawings and was out of
my comfort zone. I am so happy I decided
to submit and that I am of the chosen
Artists to be featured in the SandScript.

Community College
Brianna Stevens – Hello, My name is
Brianna Stevens, also known as Bebe Tea
on social media. After recently graduating
from GCU, I’m currently going to Pima to
continue my character design studies. The
piece “Garden Spirit” was created using
mood boards and my love for the Asian
culture. I wanted to express my interest in
the mythical and fantasy elements. The
main goal was to convey serenity and
calmness. Creating this piece was very
interesting and different for me. This was
my second piece using Photoshop for just
drawing purposes.
Clarissa Holguin – My name is Clarissa, I
love the desert, animals, art and music. I
love bright colors, detail and representing
my Mexican culture with my art. I focus on
making pieces that make me feel happy
or send a message. Overall, I try to enjoy
the journey I took to get to the art piece.
Claudia Nazario – Claudia Nazario is a
California native that took up painting
as a creative and stress-free outlet to
balance her doctoral research and
teaching responsibilities at the University
of Arizona. Very quickly she realized art
was more than a hobby and storytelling
medium. Now, Claudia seeks a way to
marry her academic interests with her art.
