#Art #DigitalArt #Vector #BamlyticsArt
A stylized vector illustration of a woman sitting relaxed in a triangular hammock chair. She has long black hair, a small pink flower tucked on one side, and a soft, calm expression. Her legs are folded comfortably as she sits on a tan cushion. The background shows pale blue walls, hanging vines with small green leaves, and a potted plant below. Light and shadows fall diagonally across the scene, giving it a peaceful, sunny atmosphere.

“She took the midnight train… not to anywhere, but to practice.”

A dancer’s journey, told in the only way I know how.
My current WIP exploring new perspectives, poses, scenes.
Dancers make really great models.

A four-panel illustration titled “Day of a Dancer.” Top left: A young woman with long brown hair and red lipstick looks toward the viewer in a soft, pastel-lit dressing room. Top right: The same woman rides public transit, holding a rail as her hair blows behind her. Bottom left: The woman leaps in a ballet studio, captured mid-air in front of a tall mirror with her reflection behind her. Bottom right: She sits at a café table in a red chair, sipping a drink after practice as small tables recede into the background. The style is clean vector art with warm tones and simple, graphic shapes.

"I see you looking"

#DigitalArt #VectorArt #Illustration #PortraitArt #BamlyticsArt
A stylized vector illustration of a woman with straight auburn hair, soft freckles, and red lipstick turning over her shoulder toward the viewer. She wears a pink off-shoulder top and stands in front of a lighted vanity mirror with a pale peach frame. Her reflection appears faintly in the mirror behind her. Warm highlights on her hair and soft shadows on her back suggest bright overhead lights.

Alt text: A digital vector portrait of a woman in a white halter-style dress and pearl necklace, standing in a softly colored room. She has short black hair, red lipstick, and lavender eyeshadow, with her eyes closed in a calm, confident expression. A framed pink floral picture hangs on the wall behind her. The overall style is clean and lineless, with pastel tones and a vintage glam aesthetic.

She wasn’t feeling any type of way today.
This is just who she is.

#BamlyticsArt #DigitalArt #Portrait #Vibes
A digital vector portrait of a woman with long black hair, green eyes, and warm brown skin. She wears large circular brown-and-purple earrings and a denim-blue jacket.

Experimented with matte tones and clipped patterns.

The “no background” choice felt right; sometimes the pattern is the scenery.

Boo doesn’t need a man or woman when she’s got her best pup by her side.

This started as a quick sketch and turned into a full golden-hour portrait.
Built from shapes, refined in light.
#DigitalArt #VectorArt #ArtistOnBluesky #Illustration #GoldenHour #Art #BamlyticsArt
Vector portrait of a woman with wavy dark hair, olive skin, and a calm, thoughtful expression. She stands in front of an autumn landscape with orange and brown trees under a golden sky, the light softly reflecting on her shoulder and necklace pendant. The mood is quiet and cinematic, evoking late-afternoon warmth.

Played with light, form, and color today — this one felt cinematic from the start.
The shadows and gold accents found their balance right when I stopped overthinking them.

Vector portrait of a woman in a black off-shoulder top with gold and emerald jewelry. Burgundy hair, coral nails, soft gray light angled across her face. Feels like a quiet film still — elegant and moody.

Did you miss the connection — or did it ever happen?

Art feels like a moment paused. A story still deciding what happens next.

Vector portrait of a woman with short dark hair, reflective gray shades, and a navy outfit against a muted olive background. Her expression is calm and confident, with stylized highlights and soft geometric shading.

Two worlds meet — light and memory.
The same face seen through life and legacy.

#DiaDeLosMuertos #DigitalArt #AffinityDesigner #BamlyticsArt #Art
Vector artwork split into two halves showing the same woman in contrasting scenes. On the left, she stands against a pale lavender background wearing a burgundy outfit, with a mug on the counter behind her and soft daylight casting her shadow. On the right, she transforms into a Día de los Muertos version of herself — her face painted as a colorful calavera, crowned with bright orange marigolds, and dressed in vivid pink, teal, orange, and navy. Candles glow on the counter behind her, and the background fades to black. The image symbolizes the connection between life and remembrance, daylight and spirit, through mirrored composition and color.

I spend a lot of time turning data into visuals, but you can’t fake good art sense.
This is how I train it - motion, color, flow, and a bit of chaos.

#DigitalArt #MotionStudy #ArtJourney
A stylized digital illustration of a woman in a flowing red dress caught mid-motion. Her long hair sweeps dramatically behind her in a curved arc, and the folds of her dress ripple as if caught by wind. Soft sunlight highlights her right side while the shadows and subtle blue reflections add depth. The image focuses on implied motion — the sense of spinning or movement in a still frame — created through light, fabric, and flow.

Leadership isn’t one style - it’s four kinds of power, working together.

Direct (Title)
Indirect (Network) – trust and reach
Inspirational (Story)
Exemplary (Performance)

Every organization’s rhythm depends on how these blend.

#Leadership #Analytics #VisualStorytelling #Bamlytics
Infographic titled “Types of Authority.” Four petal-shaped panels surround a central silhouette cluster. Each petal represents a type of leadership power: Direct (gold), Indirect (blue), Inspirational (purple), and Exemplary (green). The dark background and soft radial glow create depth, with clean white typography labeling each type.

1. Tariff chatter
2. Market panic
3. Rebound

Classic roller coaster (minus the fun).
The Bam-Index bounced last week from the dip everyone saw coming.
Sometimes the “expected” moves are still the loudest.

#Analytics #DataViz #Bamlytics
An infographic titled “Bam-Index – Small Market Signal.” It shows a blue line chart labeled “Week Over Week,” with the line rising steadily after a sharp dip in the middle. On the left are market metrics: Curr: 19,823.08 AVG: 19,744.06 UCL: 20,097.49 LCL: 19,390.62 Below, a summary reads: “The S&P was up 1.7 percent this week. A rebound from the previous week’s close after the tariff-threat-driven dip. Government shutdown delays continue in the jobs report.” Status indicators note: Momentum +1.7 percent vs last week Position vs mean: Above Trend: Rising. Colors are orange, blue, and gold with a small Bamlytics logo at the bottom.

I compared average sodas, energy drinks, and chocolates by 100 ml to normalize the sweet impact.

Does sugar make you sweet...or make you crash?

#DataArt #SugarRush #VisualAnalytics #Bamlytics #DataViz
Infographic comparing average sugar content in popular sodas, energy drinks, chocolates, and sweet snacks. Each item is normalized to 100 ml to create a “sugar index” showing which categories deliver the biggest rush or crash. The visuals resemble fizzy drink bubbles and candy tones to evoke sweetness and energy.
