Boutwell with their Wacom pen.

Alex Boutwell

Alex Boutwell (‘24) looked out at the glistening St. Johns River and described their true passion: art.

“Art is a really big part of my life”. Boutwell works for at least 2-3 hours everyday, and they highly value the materials they use. 

“This is a Wacom pen.  It’s for digital art” they said, and held up a thick pen with a plastic tip. “I probably wouldn’t have gotten it unless I was really dedicated to art.” The pen, which costs about $70, is typically only used by professionals.                                                                  

The wacom pen has aided Boutwell mentally as well as physically. “It (art) is a way to express myself in ways that are more than just speaking,” they said.

“It just seems like it’s always been the right thing for me.”

One of Boutwell’s favorite digital creations.
