My name is Hannah Strupp. I am a 22 year old artist born and raised in Arnold, Missouri. I enjoy many forms of art such as drawing, painting, sculpting, printmaking, tattooing, etc. My work is a way for me to illustrate feelings or thoughts I had during a certain time in my life. I use symbols, lines, and colors to tell a “story” about my life through my perspective, to share my thoughts in the fragmented way I perceive them. Due to past experiences, my mind is flooded with an unhealthy mass of jumbled or fragmented thoughts with no clear relation between them. I want to understand more of the lines, colors, and figures that are in my mind, and I want to express what I saw or felt during my life events. My work consists of traditional and digital illustrations, printmaking, and ceramics. I used alcohol markers, colored pencils, soft pastels, ink, and various glazes. These materials allow me to be flexible with my work; I can create realistic drawings where I can obscure the details as much or as little as I want, but I can also use these materials to stylize my work. My work includes bright colors, lines, and shapes, to describe my inside thoughts and feelings
