Vodka Bacon Studios

I love creating whimsical, fun, cartoon style paintings with a contemporary twist. My art is colorful and happy. I love playing with textures and expressing my thoughts and dreams onto canvas. I primarily paint with acrylics, but I have been known to oil it up a bit, and use mix media. I enjoy life, and I try to transcend that feeling through my art. Every time someone tells me that one of my paintings makes them happy or that it reminds them of a good time, I know my message is being received. A lot of my motivation for my art is from the work I do in the social work field. I work with and get to know people that are dealing with situations that I could not even imagine going up against. To watch them face these issues and still appreciate the gifts in life is inspiring. When I see so many people struggling and suffering every day, but still find reasons to laugh and smile, it makes it hard not to try to find the joy and sometimes sarcasm when painting. I am the creator of Vodka Bacon Studios and just started showing my art publicly. I was also Visual Artist of The Year in St. Louis for 2012.
