Cryomera

I'm an artist based in Spokane WA that specializes in traditional dip pen and ink and relief carving/printmaker. My subjects involve dark surreal imagery.....and evil sock puppets.

Thanks! **I’m a new artist. Where do I start?** This is my experience, it's not a one size fits all: Get in the habit of doodIing on a daily basis, (even if it's just a smiley face). Research ART FUNDAMENTALS. Save art that exhibits those fundamentals well. Use them as references when studying, and study in preparation for the compositions you want to create. Use sites like Pinterest for not only inspiration but finding quick tutorials. Most importantly... DO NOT WORRY ABOUT DEVELOPING A STYLE!!! Your personality will manifest in your art the more you practice. Originality is overrated, just be authentic. Be YOU.
