"Inner Goddess of Mine" Drawing

"Reality is what binds me to this world, my art is what sets me free..." I am a graphic designer by trade and fine artist at heart. A full-time college student at The Art Institute of New York City, I am earning my degree in Graphic Design. I am known as an obsessed designer and a compelled artist. I have enjoyed painting and drawing for the past two years. My media of choice; pastels and charcoal. I adore how this dry media enables me to have a hands on experience. Being able to intergrate myself through touch, feeling the paper through the pastels as it guides me. It becomes a very intimate moment in time painting with pastels... Though few can have such an appreciation. I seek inspiration from such great pastel artists such as, Schiele, Munch, and Monet. Their beautiful distortions of the human figure and emotions, I cannot help but be enthralled with.
