Hello, my name is Alicia Zhuang. I recently graduated from Laguna College of Art and Design majoring in illustration and minor in fine art. I grew up in Newton, Massachusetts but went across the country to study art in Laguna Beach, California. Growing up, I was in a very non-artistic loving household but as someone who really wanted to pursue art, I packed my bags and ran to the other side of the country to do so. I wanted to escape and start over, to find what I love to do and luckily, I was able to do so. I wanted to start from a blank slate and grow and take the steps myself. So although, I love my parents, I knew they'll probably never understand what I wanted to do. Even though, I thank them a lot for letting me to escape and follow my passion to create. Currently, my favorite mediums are digital and oil painting but I've been dabbling with gouache more and hope to do more of that in the future. As of now, I see myself as an artist who's always ready to tackle on an new adventure.
