Hi I'm Christine J. Shanks,
Associate Professor & Program Chair of Graphic Design at Tompkins Cortland Community College. Welcome to my education website. 

Come check out my fine art and commercial nature work.

I am an image maker, designer and educator. I feel at home on the computer and working by hand in the studio. 

Some of my specialties are design (web, interactive and print), motion graphics, printmaking (utilizing both traditional and digital processes), and photography (alternative processes, digital and film). 

For over 15 years I have shared my expertise with students as a professor in higher education, as well as through workshops and lessons for students of all ages.
