  Hello, My name is Brenden Vigil, this is my second history of art course here at CSU Pueblo.  I am an art major with a minor in media communications.   My goal is to get my masters in a specific emphasis in either animation or graphic design.  I want to eventually look into a job within the entertainment field.  I enjoy things like strategy games, card games, and collecting comics.  I enjoy too many artists work as I am always looking for artists, but my favorite few artists are Fabio Napolioni, Saul Blinkoff, and Greg Tocchini.
