創建 07-28-2021 (End of an Era)

July 28, 2021 by Michaela Lozada

I have filled countless sketchbooks, especially since quarantine began, but I’ll probably never stop feeling sentimental about saying goodbye…as I am now, with a sketch made in less than twenty minutes, staring back at my reflection from the emptiness of a one-person Zoom which I’d joined a bit ahead of schedule.

This hardcover treasure has seen triumphs and trials, and it has been my unfailing ally in my most shameful fits of terror. (In moments of panic, my mind considers [2] fight, [3] flight, and [1] art.]

Take my wallet, cut in front of me in a line, chop off my braid, with less fear than you ought to feel if you ever have the gall to stand between me and free, creative expression.

Thank you to more people than anyone including myself can be aware of, who have contributed to the contents of this book – and thank you to those who will influence the next book.

Artist Statement

My art has always acted as a microphone for my thoughts and observations; through it, I make my voice heard. Through wide-ranging media, such as charcoal portraiture, 2-D and 3-D animation, and oil painting, I create statements on equally widespread themes, from the nobilities of simple living to issues of global concern.

Whenever possible, I use my computer science background to integrate elements of programming and the digital world into my art, making for a very unique portfolio!

Media

I choose media carefully to best complement this process. Charcoals and graphite are used to capture the most fleeting subject material, using quick, sparing strokes to reflect bodies in motion and draw out the evanescence of the image as a whole. For the opposite effect, I often elect to use paints (usually oils) to create a work with multiple depths. Glazes layered carefully on thicker mixes of paint are used to capture the nuances of the personalities I choose to convey. I always try to adapt my knowledge of computer science to my art, mixing traditional art with digital and combining seemingly opposing media.
