So update, imma be apart of the Gallery in London!

The sad part is that it's hard to celebrate and feel a sense of achievement when trumps executive orders can possibly detain me and my loved ones for being
-Hispanic
-speaking Spanish
-brown
Even if I'm a citizen, to them we are all the same

An old photo I made for university. Made like so many flautas because I messed up the letters with the salsa and these dried Chiles I have

Yes I ate them all, for a couple of days😂 #tacos #food #photography #type #graphicdesign #project #art

Not the best print but work on progress dry etching

Made with Acrylic plastic and used a spoon to the best of my ability
Was figuring out how to make shading with different tools similar to how aquatint would be used

This is an old peice from university where we learned about motion and I chose dragonflies and I threw it away cuz I got no space to keep it 🫠

Made with wire, ink, a brick I found, transparent printable paper (forgot what it was called) #dragonflies #art #sculpture #artist #old #school

Been looking for jobs for a year after graduation in my field (no luck), Galleries are great but doesn't pay enough, but I need money now due to house problems (leaks and water damage) so I'm hoping this flower shop hires me 🥹 stresssss😬

OH I just found out it's #portfolioday ! How nice :D

Hi I'm Carla!
I'm a traditional artist that mainly works with Intaglio printing but I also dabble in painting and drawing.

Any other printmakers on here 👀 or if you got questions on the process I'm happy to talk about ☺️

So I am trying to learn stylized drawing but it's hard since I'm used to realistic drawing so it's like relearning how to draw basically lol in the mean time enjoy these birdies in watercolor I see in my backyard in the summer☀️ #birds #watercolor #cute #drawing #art #draw #painting #summer

The last post was an attempt with oil pastels in a stylized way lol I will figure it out but this one is pen with comic and called "why do humans like onions" and old drawing but one of my fave #marker #pen #alien #drawing #art #artist #draw
