Ok, for those of you who know me, I suck at Illustrator. Back in the day when Macromedia was a big hit, I was trained in Freehand, very straight forward, no fuzz no muzz when it came to vector illustration... LOVED IT!!! but one day, poof!!! Macromedia is bought by Adobe and that was it for Freehand, I dabbled here and there with Illustrator but never caught on to it. Then Flash came along and since it was also a vector program and the line tool was and is the Bomb!!! Illustrator took a back seat to my creative mishaps of the digital expression kind, but now... turns out that in order to become a Freelance artist, I really need to suck it up and learn me some Illustrator!!! So here I give you my first attempt to Illustrator. Look familiar? why yes... very Kristen Ulve I would say, her illustrations are absolutely amazing, simple yet so much detail goes into them, every single time I go to her site, I drool at the amazing talent that she is and find myself constantly and eagerly going to her page for inspiration, she makes it look oh so easy!!! I hope to follow in her greatness one day and become a master illustrator!!!

A stillness of Explosive Colors

Lets start by introducing some of my work.
I have spent the past few years contemplating on starting a blog. I start one and then delete it due to the lack of commitment I tend to demonstrate.
But today is a new page, new goals surface and I feel that this time around i will commit to keeping up with a blog.

My main reason for a blog, I guess like everybody, is to promote my work. Like every artist, i seek adulation for my talent and recognition amongst my piers.

Art is what inspires us, Art is what motivates us to venture into the world and confront its depressing realities with a colorful stance and a creative and liberated expression of ideals that are better put to canvas, walls, sketch books, websites and of course blogs, so we can not only be recognized for our talent, but for being that artist that brought a smile to that brooding individual surfing the web bored or on the bus annoyed at life.

To many Art is what defines us, but to the majority, Art is what moves us, and with that said, i introduce my latest piece... still in progress, but an inspiration of color and an allegory to the human form and its link to arts in a colorful explosion of brightness and creative chaos.

The simplicity of the body symbolizes man and woman's willing integration to Art and its explosion of themes and designs that forever bring to us a  sense of endless possibilities.
