portfolio: i want to sail away on those swirlies

I have so great a passion for art that sometimes I think I am going to burst. I became this way first as a photographer who wanted to scrapbook artistically those images I photographed. Scrapbooking allowed me to express outwardly what my brain was thinking. From there, many steps led me to where I am today, a graduate in Graphic Design. I have a great understanding of how to use different pieces, design principles, textures, found objects, color, imagery, paper, patterns cohesively in one piece of design or a series. Because I have been a scrapbook artist for many years I have knowledge in the many ways a sketch or idea can work into a final design. This selection of my work is just a small portion of what I can do and how I think. My style is eclectic, vintage, antique, urban, shabby chic, but can also be sweet, simple, cutesy and classy. Also, this body of work is to show you that I have an understanding of color, design, style, edge, a creative thought process and a love for designing and everything that comes with it.
