Creative Designs

I'm a very creative person, working with many different mediums some including painting, photography, sketching/illustration, and craft jewelry. I adapt very quickly to picking up new mediums, creating designs to fit someone's requirements whilst staying in my own art style. However, I find satisfaction in challenging myself through art, making difficult projects something I'm familiar with. Just a hobby for now but would highly appreciate the opportunity to expand.
