My style of traditional art is comprised of acrylic portrait painting. I’ve been creating pieces since I could hold a pencil properly, drawing since age 6. Inspired by some of my favorite portrait artists, I begun portrait painting from a young age, painting people like singers and actors that I adored. I’m drawn most to creating eyes, that’s where I begin with my pieces and what I love most. Recently, I’ve ventured into more adventurous pieces with attempting to mimic the look of an oil painting with acrylics, or painting on different materials like denim.
