About Me

"The artist's world is limitless.

It can be found anywhere,

far from where he lives or

a few feet away.

It is always on his doorstep."

--Paul Strand

​

​

My given name, Alexandra Marie Katherine Trotter, is long in sentiment and gratefully shortened to Zanna for those who find themselves in a hurry.​

​

In contemplating what brought me 'here' today, I've the standard resume for most artists: an interest in paints and pens and pencils from a young age; a propensity to doodle overmuch in the margins while note-taking in the classroom; a niggling habit of transforming the family table into an art desk for weeks; a pattern of enrolling in art classes both in (drawing) and out (sculpture) of my comfort zone.

​

The more I learned,

the more I yearned

to stretch myself in these creative endeavors.

​

Today, I'm pursuing a bachelor's degree in Interior Design at Liberty University, and am excited to see where this will take me.

When I'm not sketching projects in a quiet corner, I'm playing French horn, enjoying a run, or hitting the books at the coffee shop. Let's talk!
