I graduated from LaGuardia Community College with a Fine Arts degree and continued my studies at City College of New York for my Digital Design degree.
I enjoy learning new things, from witnessing someone I know doing something interesting to watching tutorials. I would ask the person if they are willing to show me the basics. Because if I can grasp the basics, I can continue improving on my own later. It is fun for me to learn new things because it can become your new hobby. You can also acknowledge the work that goes into it because you have the first-hand experience.
My cat illustration paintings represent a style that I have found online from watching facebook art videos. I was never a fan of painting because you need patience and steady hands. I was also not a fan that you could not undo anything. Therefore, when I found out about a method that does not call for the use of both of them. It peaked my interest in it. I tried it out because you could not make a mistake using it. I also wanted to add a little of me into it. I wanted to make a memento for my passed away pets.
Most of my work focuses on animals because they carried out a critical role in my up bring. Growing up in a single-parent household, my dad thought I would be lonesome, so he got me pets. Once I even had five different types of pets in my apartment growing up. Therefore, I express my gratitude to them through my artwork.
