Featured Artist – Vestque

Although I have drawn or doodled all of my life I became a professional artist in January of 2008. It was then that one of my doodles were published in the art magazine Logos, and shown in Art Awake 2008. It is sad that it was not until then that I began to take myself seriously although my friends and family had considered my art a talent well before then.

Now though my eyes are open so I continue to create.

Vestque the person is quiet and contemplative. I enjoy observing rather than doing. Yet I usually find myself to be the center of attention, or at least thats how I feel. Nonetheless, I believe that Humility and Wisdom are the greatest assets any person can have. I strive every day to grow in both. Right now I am in a state of limbo between the completion of college and the start of Medical school. During this break I have decided that this was the perfect time to try and strive as an artist.

Most of my artworks are digital creations through Photoshop CS3 and hand drawn on an Adresso Tablet. Nonetheless, I am a doodler at heart so I have been known to pick up any pencils or pens I could get my hands on to get the job done.

Right now I am experimenting with incorporating pictures of textures and grains into hand drawn digital imagery. Though recently I’ve started expanding into painting. In the past I have explored the art style of anime and vectored work. I have found that I am a wandering spirit in the art world and just in general. I cannot stick with one thing or method for too long. I always want to try to experience more. This wander lust has definitely contributed to my growth as an artist since I have began, and I look forward to continuing this growth for the rest of my life.
I’m also on deviantART.
