EMPHASIS IN GRAPHIC DESIGN
Having an eye for illustrative near whimsical imagery, my drawings and illustrations perpetually give off a sense of fantasy. Presently, my art has evolved into an all-inclusive understanding of inner wellness for both sexes. Along with my traditional graphic design and illustration works you will be able to view my current ornamental vector designs. These textile designs allow the observer a moment to reflect and explore its overall imagery, encouraging new conversations, and understandings on design purpose and content.
My career in beauty has influenced my interest in making art about the strength and perseverance of women. I have always been fascinated with the pursuit of perfecting oneself intellectually, spiritually, and physically and yet I was faced with an opposing idealism that sparked a conceptual shift into my work.

CHECK BEHIND THE SCENES OF HER THESIS PROJECT

BFA THESIS PROJECT
My FLO.RES.CENCE wallpaper design allows the observer a moment to focus on the overall illustrative imagery before the content reveals itself to the viewer.
My intention for the BFA Show was to have the viewers question their own feelings of seeing breasts and nipples from both sexes revealed to them at a level of anatomical beauty in an everyday environment.
