Visual Art – Miami
Ne’Chelle Straughter (ꓘASPVR)is a 23-year-old local artist from Broward County, FL. Primarily focusing on the traditional mediums such as pencil and paint, Ne’Chelle also practices digital media techniques, such as Photoshop and digital painting. The name Kaspur, inspired by Casper the Ghost, was chosen to personify her artistic spirit; “my artistic spirit is free, and it can’t be killed so even when I die from my body, that spirit will always echo through my work”. Ne’Chelle’s style choice and subject matter varies from her favorite pop culture musical artists, movies and cartoons, to surreal inspired themes and abstract expressionism. The young artist is also the owner and founder of the brand Art By Mistykh; using apparel as another medium, she wanted not only to share her art but to represent the art community and inspire other artists.
