HELLO! I’M ERIN K. RUSSELL AND I’M AN ILLUSTRATOR LOCATED IN MICHIGAN. I AM BASED IN GRAND RAPIDS WHERE I CURRENTLY ATTEND SCHOOL AT FERRIS STATE UNIVERSITY’S KENDALL COLLEGE OF ART AND DESIGN. AT THIS MOMENT I AM A SENIOR AND WILL BE GRADUATING WITH A BFA IN ILLUSTRATION IN DECEMBER OF 2026.
MY ART STYLE IS VERY VIBRANT AND SHARP. I HAVE A VERY GRAPHIC STYLE WHERE I TEND TO EXAGGERATE THE WORLD INTO SIMPLER SHAPES ALONG WITH USING A BRIGHT COLOR PALETTE.
MY PORTFOLIO CONTAINS EXAMPLES OF TRADITIONAL AND DIGITAL ART. I TEND TO GRAVITATE TRADITIONALLY TOWARDS GOUACHE, INK, AND COLORED PENCIL. DIGITALLY, MY EXPERIENCE LIES IN USING ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE. I USE BOTH MY TRADITIONAL AND DIGITAL SKILLS TO CREATE WORKS THAT ARE FANTASY NARRATIVES INVOLVING ANIMALS AND MYSTICAL BEINGS. LET’S WORK TOGETHER! TEEHEEARTISTRY@GMAIL.COM
