I was an Interior Design student from Louisiana State University, with a minor in Fine Art,and Theatre Design. Due to many health issues & some other family issues, I haven't quite been able to finish(yet.)
I am also fluent in graphic design & do some web design, and currently do "odd jobs" in this area. Although I will rarely paint or draw commission bades work (unless I am given alot of freedom in the design), I do commissioned graphic design & am always looking for jobs that I can do from my home studio. I am very fluent in photoshop & am for hire.
I work with many mediums, and have many works in my portfolio ranging from lithographs to sculpture. My pieces include, but are not limited to, oil, watercolor, and acrylic paintings; Photoshop and other digital work; collage and sculpture; as well as photographs and ink prints.
Art being a hobby, as well as work, I love to take “orphaned” furniture and turn it into “art with a working purpose”. I also make furniture out of found scraps and various materials. My furniture is mainly for artistic purposes, although the original use is generally still its other function. Sometimes I find a new use for an old piece.
I also use my three dimensional art as a springboard for photos and digitally altered work.
I am happy to be a part of the Deviant Art family, and would love for you to share my artwork as a means of inspiration, and word-of-mouth promotion. Although I want to fill all of my viewers with motivation and encouragement, I do not intend for my work to be copied or imitated. A word to the wise: Come to the “drawing board” with a clear mind, and use your inner self to find your own style. The best art originates from the soul of the individual.
My works vary greatly in material and type, but I think that you will begin to recongnize my style. This being said I love to hear from all of my viewers, and would love to know what you think about my style. I love complments, but prefer to hear why my artwork is being complemented, and welcome constructive criticism.
I also have sites at Etsy, Zazzle & Redbubble, but am re-doing all my sites currently. I soon also have a few websites that I am re-doing. I will provide the links as soon as I come closer to getting them organized!
My link to my Redbubble site is:
lpolla2.redbubble.com/Please check it out if you have time as I am still reworking this site as well.
You can also find me at Facebook under my name in Louisiana. I welcome artists of any kind to my page.
Have a blast!
