I think of my style of drawing as "High Contrast'.
My aesthetic is high-contrast, colorful and bold usually with a subtle social justice message hiding somewhere. I am a total color-lover and kind of a maximalist in my art style.
What's the secret in creating your illustration?
An important aspect of my practice is making artwork that is reflective of my values and beliefs. I'm not the most outspoken or extroverted person, so I tend to make art as a vehicle to communicate my views, express my opinion, talk about injustices and spread awareness of causes that matter a lot to me.
