All, when I receive 30,000 page views, whoever takes a screenshot of that and sends it to me, I will complete a gift painting for you. I look forward to connecting with more artists and hearing about your aspirations and goals, sharing my own with you, and potentially collaborating in the future!
Best wishes,
Becky

Otakon and Research Updates
2 min read
I came back from Otakon this week with my husband and dear friend. I haven't been in about six years! We had a fantastic time. The whole summer has been filled with moving, traveling, and plenty of boating and wave runner riding. I enjoyed browsing the artist alley this year-- I used to do tables and sell large poster sized art. However, I don't have the interest to do art for profit, so I'd like to do a table next year, but it would be for charity to an animal shelter.
My favorite booth was by the artist katizua.deviantart.com. She had a lovely style and a great mixture of artwork and bookmarks!
As I prepare for the fall semester, I'm in the process of wrapping up several journal articles and preparing for teaching Persuasion and Media Production. I'm in my second year of working towards tenure, and the stress is feeling very real. But, I do love my job. I've also changed my legal name to Britt, so going by 'Dr. Britt' is new!
Speaking of doctors, my husband just completed his Ph.D. and a second Masters degree in Statistics. Commencement at Purdue University was great and so special for us. I am so proud of him.
As I think more about my upcoming plans for my art in the fall, I have plans to do research on issues that affect artists. I would be grateful to hear any feedback or ideas on what is important to you as an artist in terms of anything-- financially, as a community partner, and so on.
Until next time!
Best,
Becky

Life as an Assistant Professor is going well. I am so proud to be part of the University of Akron School of Communication in the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences. Akron is undergoing tremendous research projects and we're spearheading new ventures into online learning components. In addition, our School of Communication is filled with undergraduate and graduate students of all interests. With WZIP, our Broadcast Center, providing excellent news and music updates, PRSSA and so much more, we are a bustling, exciting place to be. It's an exciting time to be at Akron, where we've got cutting edge technology and research, much of which leads to exciting travel around the world and great networking opportunities.
My art will always be my first love, and something I will continue to cherish in my tenure-track pursuits.
