Tropical Acrylic Paintings
I continue to explore and experiment with different mediums, creating large tropical acrylic paintings that capture the essence of my most cherished moments. These pieces are inspired by blissful experiences that have had a majestic impact on my life, allowing me to express the feelings that make my heart radiate. I also embrace the beauty in color, inspired by the fact that most human eyes can only perceive through a three-cone spectrum, unlike some in the bird kingdom and certain women who possess a fourth cone. Through my art, I aim to share that warmth and positivity, hoping to inspire and uplift others with each stroke, creating a connection that shines beyond the canvas.
Digital Paintings
For my Celebrity Portrait and Digital Landscape projects, I utilized an array of digital brushes in Photoshop to mimic the rich texture and depth of acrylic paint on canvas. This digital approach allowed me greater creative freedom and flexibility, enabling me to manipulate layers, experiment with colors, and refine details without the risk of damaging the original artwork. The ability to adjust shading and highlights effortlessly also saved time, allowing me to achieve a vibrant, lifelike result that maintains the authenticity of traditional painting while pushing artistic boundaries in the digital space.
Sketchbook Illustration
a powerful and emotional cover design using graphite and gouache, later bringing it to life in Illustrator. The concept behind the "death of the heart" was to symbolize the idea of pouring one's heart and soul into their work—whether on paper or in life. The image captures a dramatic and unique moment where, as you look closely into the eyes, a lifeline pulses with movement before slowly stopping, representing how quickly passions and love can fade away. The design serves as a reminder to cherish every moment, embrace creativity, and enjoy the fleeting beauty of life, just as we do when we sketch or create.
Womens day Poster 19" by 25"
For this Women's Day poster, I combined acrylic paint on canvas with digital enhancements in Photoshop to create a striking collage that celebrates female empowerment. I carefully planned and laid out all elements using a three-color palette, ensuring a cohesive and visually engaging design. The poster highlights a trailblazing woman excelling in an industry traditionally dominated by men, showcasing her strength, passion, and unwavering determination to follow her talents. By taking the time to understand the client’s story and passions, I was able to authentically capture her journey and present her work in a way that resonates and inspires.
