Artist Statement
My theme for this series of illustrations is based on royal female aesthetics and tragic storylines. I chose this theme because the royal aesthetics would allow me to create flamboyant pieces while the tragic storylines would help provide me with a cohesive collection. The inspiration comes from classical or classical-inspired music. The elements and principles of design my pieces focus on are color, value, contrast, unity, and texture. I use the elements and principles of design to help me determine what colors, shapes, and add on's I will use. This collection is a reflection of the type of work I want to do in the future because it is bold and tells a story.
