Guerra, a senior studio art major with an emphasis in drawing from Lincoln, said the Capstone exhibition is a culmination of her work.

“I am beyond excited to showcase this work that I am very proud of and have been creating throughout my valued years here at UNL,” she said. “These cartoon characters in both my paintings and drawings have taken on a life of their own, as I truly find them everywhere I go. This exhibition has such a wide variety of creativity and talent from such amazing artists, and I am very happy to be here with them all.”
