A day in the life...
Thank you etsy for featuring my shop in the 'Quit Your Day Job' Series! http://www.etsy.com/blog/en/2012/quit-your-day-job-solocosmo/ I am so thankful for Etsy and everything it has brought to me. I would not be doing what I am doing without it.
I love to create images that remind me of childhood and how dreamy and fanciful it can be. I spun wild tales as a child about Dinosaurs that still roamed the other side of the earth, man eating plants that grew in my backyard...and being able to fly...but only at night. Every night I made sure to wear cute pj's to bed in case Peter Pan came for me and I would have to wear my pj's to neverland....really. I think it was just my creativity and my storytelling finding it's way into my 'real' life. I try to recreate these kinds of tall tales now in pictures and illustrations.
About my work:: I am a digital artist, the volume of my work consists of digital paintings, photo-manipulations, photo-collages (made with either personal photos, stock or work that is in the public domain). Most pieces include all of the above techniques combined for a finished artwork.
