This week, we’ve decided to feature a 2021 Lewis University English major and Jet Fuel Review Alum for their wonderful artwork. Please welcome Madeline Brzeczek!
“Forged through years of trial and error, my digital art uses a semi-lineless style to emphasize flat shapes and vibrant colors, allowing for the freedom of simplicity and abstraction without being bogged down by linework and dimension. I use limited color palettes of usually five to six colors as both a challenge to myself and to create cohesion throughout a piece. I mainly illustrate figures and fashion through portraits, symbolic scenes, and conceptual art. My inspiration comes from art nouveau and art deco style posters as well as whatever video game I am playing at the time. My art also focuses on portraying LGBT+ characters and themes, especially depicting the beauty and validity of transgender bodies.”
