- I am a student by day and an artist by night. My art has been catagorized by others “not myself I just create : )” as contemporary or as illustrative graphic design.
- I am completely self taught and am learning all of the time.
- I have always had the ability to create, but didn’t start until after I graduated from college with a BA in psychology. As I try to figure out what I am to do with this degree, I take classes to improve my marketability in the “real” world but am torn between knowing the fact that those who fall away from main stream tend to be the most sucessful if they can find and do what they love.
- I am struggling to find a style but have been told I already have one.
- I discovered the possibility of selling art online in 2005 by an offchance search on ebay and somehow found ACEO cards.
- For those of you trying to sell and create online! it can be done and I have talked with many who have made it. I may not be the best one to ask because I’m still trying to figure out the big secret.
My medium of choice is acrylics on canvas sheets.
I have used watercolor, colored pencils, oil pastels, and inked illustrations colored in photoshop 7.
