My name is Nicole Montoya and I am a student at University of Massachusetts in Lowell, Massachusetts. I am majoring in Art History which is a subject I hold dearly to my heart. My mother was a painted when I was young and she had showed me her favorite artists which in turn became my favorite artists as well. I love learning about art in general but painting and sculptures from Europe have a special place in my heart. Since I do love painting and sculptures from Europe, traveling there has always been on my list. Even though I have yet gone to Europe, I haven’t lost hope in going! One day, hopefully in the near future, I will make my trip to Europe to view all the art it has for me to enjoy.
