Hello Im Miguel

Hello my name is Miguel and im more of a old school sketch book artist then a digital artist. I take drawing as a way to take my mind of things but if I’m not drawing im normally playing games, modding my friends stream, or (rarely) streaming. I also enjoy looking at other peoples drawing and creations because i see it as a way to help with a creative block, seeing someone’s else art can sometimes give me a sort of inspiration when i dont know what to make myself. Lastly, I have a extremely small attention span so i have to constantly move or do something in order to stay focused for a long period of time.

Layla Flores

I was born and raised in New York. I moved to Florida for three years but then moved back to Queens. I currently have an Associates in Liberal Arts Math and Science. I decided to major in Communication Design since art is a hobby of mine and I wanted to learn more about how it can be applied.

Outside of class I enjoy playing online games with my friends and watching movies.

Hi, My Name is Luis

Hello my name is Luis Ramos, I am a digital artist. I like to mess around on photoshop and just edit photos and drawing creations.

I was born in Queens New York and I lived here for all 19 years. I started being interested in art around 5th grade because my art teacher really inspired me. I never really got into art deeply until around 11th grade because I was doing other things at the time. I was taking college art classes in high school and also doing a little something on the side.

I recently bought a drawing tablet to make it easier to draw. I also love to paint and draw on paper. I am currently creating these painting for my friends and people I know online and I sell them around. I also draw the tattoos that I will getting. So far I have one that I am 100% getting soon.

My big dream is to get degrees in Graphic Design and also Animation.

Noorshad Jahan

My name is Noorshad Jahan. I am good at editing photos and creating aesthetic wallpapers. Most of my work would be done digitally because I tend to get inspired by Instagram posts and social media. I not only like art, I also like to listen to music because it helps me work properly and concentrate. Outside of art and music, I like to go out on my own and meet new friends in the campus. Whatever comes to my mind, I like to edit photos from Pinterest. Some of the apps I use are ibis Paint X and PicsArt. I use ibis Paint X for photo editing and PicsArt for decorations and aesthetic collage edits.

Ellen Baryshev

I am an artist, graphic/web designer and college educator.

I was born in Russia, lived in Russia and Ukraine and came to America with my family when I was 39. I studied academic art and graphic design at the Kiev Institute of Graphic Design in Ukraine and graduated with a degree in graphic design. After moving to New York, I received a BA in multimedia design.

I had to start from the scratch, starting with learning the new language, graduating from college, and pursuing my career. It was difficult, but everything is possible if you work hard toward your goal.

What I love – I love my family. I love animals, especially my cats. I love art and everything around it. I love nature, and I miss snow. I love learning, I always learn something new, including new skills. I love teaching, giving my knowledge and my skills to students. I love my students, and still in contact with many of my former students.

I believe in people. I believe that everybody is talented in one way or another, no exceptions.

I believe that if we want to achieve something, we will if we really work on it.

The proof – the last achievement is the book on which my daughter and I work for 7 (!) years.

It was hard, but here is the result:  http://morethanborsch.com
