For me art has always been part of my life. From stick figures, to figures with their arms behind their back, to realistic portraits, to designed artwork. While I am still learning in my artwork what my style is and what I bring to the art community, I always try to keep my art organic and energetic. While my lines are imperfect, their sort of looseness is something I like to keep in my work because of the natural and illustrative qualities. While my background is much more on realism, I love deigning things and working on composition as it helps me grow as an artist. But more and more I try to expand my designs to have illustrative properties that tell a story and I tend to admire more illustrative and whimsical works.I hope to translate my illustrative properties into Graphic Design within various poster making, logo making , and other projects. Being able to tell a story whether its with a line, a font, or an entire piece is what is most important in my work so that my audience feels as though they understand and can take a piece of my art with them.
