About Shalita Compton

My name has an artistic ring to it, Shalita. I have a degree in Studio Art, view photography as a form of art, and I want to share my vision with others interested in learning to take artistic images. For the past 15 years I have been an active artist as well as portrait photographer. My work has been exhibited many times as an artistic medium. I also hold an art education certification which means I am qualified to teach all art forms to grades K-12 in the public school system.
