ToxicRoma

Welcome to my art blog, this is where I document and sell a select few pieces of mine. I am currently studying illustration, but I don't limit myself with just illustration pieces. I also dabble in photograhy-both digital and film- painting, mixed media, collage, graphic design and much more.
Only my photography and digital pieces will be available for online order prints, for now my paintings and hand crafted pieces will only be available through personal contact and order.
When you (hopefully) order one of my pieces I have a smart-crop setting on my prints. Some of the photos are custom sized to my artistic taste, that taste however can prove to be very expensive to print and ship out. So instead of making you buy an over priced print, you can choose how you want your print to be cropped depending on the size you choose your crop might be different.
The images you can order are not just limited to plain glossy photo prints. There are many options including but not limited to, luster or glossy options. Fine art prints on hot or cold press sheets or an exhibition fiber sheet. Canvas prints are available which are museum-quality, and much much more.

Color Theory: Book Cover

For my color theory class, we had to take a book that we read and re-create the cover of it, based on color theory principles.

I took the book, Clockwork Angel and recreated the cover.

Original Cover:

Cover I created: 


Gestalt: Space to create shapes

First Semester in my Design class we had to use one of Gestalts theories to create a piece. This is the digital portion of the project-I used the theory of space to create different shapes. I used crescents and circles.


Evolution of the piece.











Logo Commissions




So my older sister is going to college for Hotel Restaurant management. She is in a class that requires her to come up with some logos to go along with setting up the food related company. And much like professionals who work in this type of industry she searched out someone to help her create the logos-myself.

The top logo was created during first semester my Freshman year, the second I did a few nights ago. I think we are both getting better.

I am Also on Tumblr.


Digital Mannequin Drawings





These were digitally drawn on Cintiq computers in my Drawing class first semester...if you cannot tell by just looking-yes it is the torso of a mannequin.

Art History Painting





This painting was done for my Art History class. Our assignment was to pick one of the artists we have studied and do a painting inspired from there work. I chose Francisco de Goya, specifically I focused on his 'Black Paintings' 

Prezi Presentation I did for this assignment can be found here
