About Miguel Angel:
I'm a web/graphic designer, artist. I've been artistically inclined as far as I can remember. Art for me is passion and expression, it's my way of showing the world who I am.
Creativity is my most exquisite delight and soul food. I possess a wide range of artistic abilities, some of them I cannot show in this network. I can do many things and play with many mediums, but haven't really focused or decided to be really good at anything.
Lately, I've been playing with calligraphy, I'm still brainstorming, and trying different tools to find my unique style.
Most of the work I do, I give away, I seldom keep something because most of the time I'm inspired to do something for someone else, to lift their spirit, as a gift, make them feel special, etc.
I think about the things I do as organic, with flaws here and there, most important to me is what I want to express, how I was feeling at that moment, what inspired me, rather than the end result. I can also do stuff which is almost perfect, but I don't get the same feeling about the artistic expression.
