Hey Upworkers! My name is Rachel and I’m a visual artist based out of Santa Monica, California. With a lifetime of studio art training and years of graphic design experience, I’ve learned to successfully navigate an extensive array of art forms. From UI design to print production, branding to social media asset creation, digital illustration to mural art spanning thousands of square feet, I've completed design work of all types. I’m proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, with adequate knowledge of Figma and Blender as well. If the aesthetic or content you’re searching for isn’t already expressed in my current portfolio, let me know and I’m always willing to try out anything new. I’m excited to get started on new projects!Illustration

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to view my artwork! Originally from Pennsylvania, I'm an Artist/Illustrator based in sunny Santa Monica, CA. I hold a BFA in Drawing/Painting and and MFA in Studio Art. I’ve worked in art education and children’s libraries, and have a great love for book art, and combining text with pictures. I use drawing, painting, printmaking and collage techniques, then edit and refine them digitally in Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator. Line drawing and watercolor painting, as well as hand-lettering and calligraphy are some of my specialties. I can draw with technical accuracy and be highly detail-oriented. I also often work in a more loose, expressive manner, or combine the two techniques (my favorite approach). I create a lot of botanical and herbal illustration, flora and fauna, landscapes, houses and architectural images, vehicles, figures, portraits, etc. I’m also very knowledgeable about Astrology and Tarot, and have made a lot of work around metaphysical themes, including my own Tarot deck. Creating illustration for clothing is another area I have a lot of experience in and love to work on! The Arts, health, nutrition, gardening/farming, environment, education, psychology, mythology, folklore, and social justice are some of my other strongest interests. I've worked for clients in the Film, Music, Fashion, Education and Food Industries, and am open to all subjects! I look forward to learning more about you and your projects, and collaborating. Thank you again! -LaurenIllustration

My name is Zari Elle Cora Phillips and I am an abstract painter and fashion illustrator based in Los Angeles. I was taught how to use oil paints and draw fashion illustrations by my grandmother (we come from a long family line of female Armenian artists) and I have been selling custom pieces professionally for the last 4 years, and before that I freelanced as a fashion illustrator for various small brands/businesses and influencers for the past 6 years. I create abstract oil and acrylic pieces in both vibrant hues and dreamy color palettes, with inspiration taken from sunsets, flowers, and current trending colors in fashion (I also have been working in the fashion industry for the past 10 years). As for custom pieces, I specialize in custom color-matching to any image, furniture, color palette requested. I have shown my pieces in art shows globally, and locally in outdoor markets. I would be honored to work with you for any of your art or illustration needs! zariellecora@gmail.comIllustration
