Howdy!
I'm Charlee, a mixed media artist and graphic designer based in Silver City, New Mexico. While growing up in the Texas Panhandle, I was fortunately encouraged to make creative messes. In my current practice, I strive to capture the essence of my surroundings and experiences through a fusion of mediums and techniques that encourage viewers to draw their own conclusions. Much of my fine art work is heavily inspired by the beautiful Gila National Forest that I visit frequently.
In my graphic design endeavors, I combine functionality and aesthetics to create designs that not only communicate effectively, but also inspire and engage viewers. Whether I'm crafting a brand identity or communicating through a fun poster design, my design approach is rooted in thoughtful storytelling and attention to detail.
