Welcome to the resume page of Angel Rodriguez and Weddings & Websites .com of New Hampshire specializing in weddings, photography, graphics and websites in the New England region of the United States.
I have been an artist since the age of 7 creating and expressing through visual mediums. At the age of 11 I started creating commissioned pieces upon the request of others. I went through all the media available to me as if I was hungry for something other than what existed around me. Wanting to furnish the world around me with my own flair I studied drawing, painting, print making, ceramics, sculpture, jewelry, photography, film, and computer graphics.
I finished my high school studies with gold medals and scholarships from The Scholastic Art Awards, 9 blue ribbons and 12 honorable mentions from The Boston Globe Art Awards, as well as The Karl H Gottschalk Art Scholarship, first place and blue ribbons from Plymouth State College and assistant teaching core and independent studies while leading the local Arts Honors Society for three years.
I attended The Massachusetts College of Art in Boston Massachusetts and focused my Undergraduate studies on Art Education while attaining Graduate credits in photography and education. I left college to join the industry work force and freelance while studying the arts and educating the public through local schools, workshops, exhibits and galleries.
I also keep a stock book and portfolios.
Objective
I desire to utilize my years of service, varied skills in the arts and my ability to work well with others in both supervisory or support staff roles to forge an inspiring career while expanding my knowledge in the employment of a great company.
