This seasons featured sketcher is:

Samiat Kolawole, aka kolawolesammy

Samiat is the winner of the sketchPatch 3Day Creative Coding Workshop Series, 15 - 17 February 2012 with Generating Genius at Crossways Sixth Form College.

The workshops were the first time Samiat had tried computer programming, but she seriously impressed the judges from sketchPatch, Generating Genius and Google with her understanding and creative use of code in her 'Final Project' piece. We are very proud to have her as Featured Sketcher on sketchPatch.

Samiat is currently studying A Level Accounting, Business and Information Communication Technology at Crossways Sixth Form College. She intends to study Accountancy with IT at university.

The sketchPatch Creative Coding workshops were delivered in partnership with Crossways Sixth Form College and...
