Maria Luiza, or more commonly known as Malu, is a senior joining The Talon as a new artist, and is looking forward to sharing her artistic skills and experiences with her peers. Malu has been attending Graded since seventh grade and has always had a passion for illustration, even prior to that. Malu’s hobbies not only include drawing, but also includes playing the violin, dancing outside of school, learning Mandarin, playing lots of video games and leading the school’s LGBTQ+ Club with great passion. With all of that passion, Malu hopes to share some of it with her fellow students by expressing herself with her artworks, hoping to bring optimism and enthusiasm to the Graded community.
