| I am an artist and freelance illustrator. I'm just drawing things I love and look forward to seeing one in print one day! I like to draw pretty ladies with long flowing hair, and in all my pieces there is a "heroine". The most important element to me in my paintings is the line. Obviouslly my influences include Alfonse mucha, but I am also inspired by Edmund Dulac, Edward Burne-Jones, John William Waterhouse, and The Last Unicorn (animated film). I draw in ink and then paint overtop with watercolor. I struggle not to let color overwhelm the line, but sometimes I can't help myself and i go nuts with rich, saturated paint. Lately I have been trying more background patterns, and organic frames. I would not say that my work has any deep concept or message. I am, however, often inspired by literature, as I am a big reader, and music. My only hope with my art is to create something beautiful, to make someones heart flutter, as so many writers, artists and musicians have made mine do. |
