Jessica Willoughby: September 2008

Thursday, September 18, 2008

Did this for a co-worker of mine of him and his wife. LOVED working with the texture in his outfit from the suit to the shirt to the tie! So fun! Plus, working with glasses was much more enjoyable than I anticipated.

What do you guys think?

Just wanted to inform you guys that I will not be at the Market this month but will be there 2 times next month. I WILL BE THERE OCTOBER 4th AND 18th.
So sorry but some things have had me a little busy, making it impossible for me to make it on the 20th of this month. I completely apologize and hope that you guys will still come and support on the 4th! See ya then!
P.S. I will be updating the blog this week with some new commission pieces I have been doing. So check back by the end of the week!

Artist Statement

I have worked with different mediums and have learned that each one brings its own personality and beauty to a piece; it is my responsibility to portray that. Art is one of the most important components of my life and as a growing artist, I am hoping to follow in the footsteps of some personally known artists like Ronald Roberts, Hyunmee Lee, Jessi Pace-Berkley and Kendra Burton. The outcome of having worked with these artists in a student setting has brought a lot of character and improvement into my work.
I select subject matters that are simple, making compositions attractive and enjoyable. I make sure that the colors I use are vibrant, the strokes I put down vary from large and visible to shorter and more restricted, and that I have open compositions that give the opportunity for the eye to wander freely.I feel that my art becomes better as I mature and expose myself to the world. As I learn new things and make constant changes, I have learned that art is my only constant. Art is the one thing that takes me to a world of my own; the one thing that takes me home.

Background

I have been doing art for at least 9 years. I am heavily influenced by my surroundings. I have had the experience to be taught by wonderful artists like Jessi Pace-Berkley, Ronald Ray Rogers, Hyunmee Lee and Kendra Burton. I have learned much from their styles and their passion for art. I live to make art. My strengths are oil painting and charcoal drawings. I take pride in my ability to draw beautiful faces and paint how I portray the world in my own, unique way.
Please contact me if you would like to have any commission work done.
