A living portfolio

Art that feels found, not filed.

Selected work

Sketchbooks, fabric, faces, motion.

The portfolio is deliberately mixed-format: finished work sits beside evidence of process, texture, and experimentation.

Artist statement

A practice built from observation, memory, and visual noise.

Sonia’s work moves between realism and expressive illustration. Faces are rendered with care, then interrupted by color, lettering, ornament, or comic-book energy. The result feels intimate, handmade, and slightly unruly.

This site treats the portfolio like a physical exhibition: layered, atmospheric, and meant to be explored rather than skimmed.

Process

From first mark to finished object.

  1. 01

    Observe

    Reference, mood, gesture, and the emotional center of the piece.

  2. 02

    Build

    Loose construction becomes structure through graphite, ink, marker, or paint.

  3. 03

    Disrupt

    Color, typography, collage, texture, and ornament break the expected image.

  4. 04

    Finish

    The work is refined for paper, apparel, print, or a custom presentation.
