My 10 Illustrations That Helped Me Find My Style
767views Matthew Gilson
Community member First, I want to thank you for taking the time to read my first post! My name is Matthew Gilson and I am an illustrator/graphic designer from Cleveland, OH. I truly enjoy sitting down and creating late into the night while listening to music. Recently, I graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art. While I was there, I feel I have finally found my style. Which is a very colorful and graphical style where the linework carries the piece. I wouldn't have been able to achieve this without the guidance of my mentors, teachers, and fellow art friends. My artistic journey is far from over, and I can't wait to see what is next. To view more of my work, check out my website. Devil Girl Pin-Up

Monkey Trouble

Bad To The Bone

After acquiring a BA in Business with Marketing Management, she decided that she wanted to do something far more creative than her usual marketing business that mostly included researching companies' competitors or working on swot/pestle analysis every single day. Excel spreadsheets weren't her thing either, so she decided creative storytelling was the way to go. Other than that, outside of work, you can find her making barista-style coffee or hand-stretched pizzas, sometimes even drawing and playing video games with friends.
