<p style="font-size: 24px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><i>Xavier  is a funny and extremely talented artist! He specializes in a variety of artistic forms but loves drawing the most! I met him three weeks ago when I started attending drawing summer intensive at the <a href="http://cooper.edu/academics/outreach-and-pre-college/summer-art-intensive" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:underline;">Cooper Union</a> where he was TA-ing. He was so incredibly warm and welcoming that eventually we all grew comfortable at the program. A couple days in, he showed us his art, and his sketchbook and it became clear how amazingly talented he was as an artist! He has a very distinct style and unique vision. Watch the video to learn more about Xavier and what it&#8217;s like to study at  <a href="http://cooper.edu/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:underline;">Cooper</a>! <img src="http://exlocum.com/artsite/wp-includes/images/smilies/simple-smile.png" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> </i></span></p>
