Welcome to Foothills Adult School! My name is Marianne Gibson and I am the Adobe Elements, Illustrator, and Photoshop instructor. I have experience as a production artist, web designer, and now your classroom instructor.

I have a strong foundation in newspaper, brochure, and magazine layout and I have designed a variety of work for print and web using Illustrator, InDesign, QuarkXpress, Flash, Dreamweaver, and Joomla.

I would like to share my experience in how to use the software, manage your own projects and implement “best practices”. My goal is to continue to improve my teaching and design skills and share what I've learned from my personal and work experience with you.
