If you could meet any artist/designer from any era, who would you want to have dinner with?
Ummm. Strange enough I have 2 options: One would be Picasso and that just because one semester I had an amazing teacher compare my work to his but I also get that comparison based on my work ethics. So now my dad calls me the young Picasso / Picasso…. Lol, ALL I hear is look at my Picasso and I love it!
But also Monet, I think he is such a vibe. Like to set in on spot for a day and paint each moment., already sounds so peaceful. I mean I might start daydreaming at moments but it sounds so relating.
What have you been up to since graduation?
Since Graduating, I find every way to connect with art. I am always looking for new art/design opportunities and also work on some personal work. My goal is to try and get my artwork into the community and the world. ( lol self-promotion – Instagram and YouTube channel: Silentfox. studio ? and website: www.silentfox.studio). I am also looking to connect with other artists. Hit me up anytime and let’s chat / collab!
What does your creative practice look like now?
Currently, I’ve been all over the place but in a good way. I make art and design daily or when I feel like it’s the right time. I’ve been honored to create murals over the summer with another amazing artist. I also joined a studio with other artists ?. I’ve been taking on commissions, freelance design work, and applying for any and everything. I am definitely doing better than I expected.
In what ways did Augsburg’s Art & Design department prepare you for what you are doing?
Going to Augsburg, Both art and design were very important, I think what one didn’t teach me the other covered. They gave me tools that I still use today. The art and design department had great connectivity and the energy is something I keep dear to my heart. Art/design is a process and the steps they have shown may look little but in the end, it was what made me believe I could be a living artist/designer.
What is something we would never guess about you?
Random but there is this place where you can swim with jellyfish and I have the desire need to go. Like it has to happen NOW!! I WANT TO SWIM WITH JELLYFISHES!
