AIMEE COELLO

fine artist & illustrator

About

I am an artist, designer, and dreamer based in Nevada. My passion for art has been a lifelong journey, starting from my earliest days as a child. During my formative years in elementary school, I embarked on an artistic journey.My artworks are deeply rooted in my emotions, often echoing sentiments of childhood nostalgia. Each piece is connected in manifestations of my innermost thoughts and experiences. My artistic prowess extends beyond traditional canvases and includes diverse media. While acrylics remain my preferred way of creative expression, I explore various other mediums, such as oil paints, watercolor, gouache, marker, and inks. Each of my creations stands as a unique testament to my artistic versatility, defying any rigid definition or consistency.I am pursuing a Bachelor's in Arts with a personal study in graphic design.

Exhibit I : notion

Notion : Meaning: "An impulse or desire, especially one of a whimsical kind."This exhibit presents stories that intrigue me, inspired by media, music, or observations from my daily life. Each piece serves a purpose to reflect what I desire, have desired, or to evoke memories.

Exhibit II : Out From the Soul

This exhibit is created exclusively in monochromes, dedicated to producing black-and-white drawings and paintings. Black-and-white thinking often compels people to classify things into absolutes, such as "good" or "bad." This mindset can make it challenging to embrace life's complexity and unpredictability. With this in mind, I create these pieces from mental health episodes, moments when picking up the charcoal vine allows me to express more through visual imagery than words ever could. These works speak directly from the soul.

Exhibit III : I Miss Her

A collection of works that delves into vulnerability and the exposure to "bad" traits. What defines a toxic person as "toxic"? This is the question I explore here, using my own portraiture combined with graffiti imagery to illustrate these negative traits in the moment.

Exhibit IV : Portraits

Portraiture pieces created to study and refine the anatomy of the human face, with a particular focus on women’s portraits and self-portraits.

EXHIBIT V | Untitled

My artistic persona embodies the essence of this girl (NAME UNKNOWN) serving as a reflection of myself and a symbol of a rebirth. We immerse ourselves in a realm of imagination, but confront harsh realities that innocence and dreaminess are not the sole inhabitants of the universe. Within this personal narrative, we experiences trauma within our own dreams.A continuous series since 2019.
