Artwork by Lauren Mutschler

As an artist, I tend to focus my artwork on the study of the interactions between man and nature, as well as experiment with satirical design relations. Furthermore, I have lived most of my life in the middle of nowhere in the desert of Agua Dulce, which is where my attraction to animal like references develops from, which is metaphorically or symbolically incorporated into specific works. However, eventually during my early teens, I ventured out of the region and commuted by train to Downtown LA for high school at LACHSA-Los Angeles County High School for the Arts- where I was exposed to the chaotic, unpredictable city streets of LA, which inspired me expand upon stylistic elements containing of a combination of beauty, satire, and horror. Some critics have described my work as “beautiful horror” because of the incorporated elements of darkness, color, and spiritual reference in the composition of some of my pieces. However, I don’t necessarily stick to specific styles, for I enjoy learning to grow as an artist so I can learn to become more worldly overall with various concepts of artistic elements and environments that I am exposed to. I use art as a creative outlet to escape the real world of the left brain to enter my subconscious realm of infinite imagination, which helps me escape my own worries of the real world as well.

The mediums I center on are those of graphite, acrylic, collage, photography, and film…

Hello to all who like me, are interested in art.

I decided to participate in this competition, because like most artists i became interested in art from an early age, as I grew older I realized I had very easily for drawing, and it was not until I turned 19 I realized that this was what I wanted to do, even if i had to live a modest life.

Unfortunately I live in Venezuela, and if you do a little searching on the internet you will realize that we are living very difficult time where even get basic things like food is quite difficult. By the excessive increase in prices I had to stop my studies. I was studying graphic design and now, i’m doing absolutely nothing, and I’m using my free time to improve my skills because I hope to continue my studies in a future. If I had the facility to pay the drawing course I would, but I really can not.

If you want to help me, please share my story on facebook, give me +1 or just leave a comment down. I will appreciate it…
