Jan. 28-30 Virtual Operations, Campus Remains Closed

Bowie State University will continue with virtual operations for all classes and office operations through Friday, January 30, 2026. The campus will be closed to all non-essential personnel, and all campus activities are canceled. All buildings except residence halls and the dining hall will be closed. Essential personnel should report on time. This is due to the extended time required to clear the extensive snow and ice accumulation on campus. University crews are making every effort to resume campus operations, as a safe return to in-person learning and work remains our top priority. Only essential personnel and residential students are permitted access to the campus through Jan. 30. For more information, please visit BowieState.edu/weather.

Carmine’s Cookeez

Thesis Statement

The theme of my animation is nostalgia and my goal is to evoke feelings of joy and nostalgia.  The animation is titled, Carmine’s Cookeez’ and it tells the story of an eager, young entrepreneur who’s dreams of a lucrative business are interrupted when unforeseen competition shows up.

  • My ultimate goal as an artist is to simply create things that I would like to be seen made. that be a painting, animation or large scale comic project. If there is an idea to be done, I’ll try to find a way to make it the best it can possibly be. With the use of multitude of mediums including; animation, digital painting, and digital 2D art, I work in to combine these various mediums and to collaborate with other artists and musicians to try to create the best experience possible.
