SkummyGorl is an artist who practices many mediums. I work with acid etching, etching my alternative and gothic designs onto mirrors and glass as my favorite form of creating art, which has sentimental meaning, as my late mother taught me how to etch glass. Most glass etchings are for decorative purposes, I have always tried to bring my own alternative style to the etching world, and I have been doing this for about a decade. I also like to paint, draw, make jewelry, and do digital art. I have been in Tucson for most of my life and have found this place to be my artistic home, I have found acceptance and support here, my art is my main form of income. I struggle with a minor learning disability that allows me to be functional, yet it is not easy all the time, considering I was diagnosed with PTSD from sexual abuse, I have had a difficult time maintaining functionality, but most importantly my happiness in careers outside of art. Art has been my safe space, my creativity, and my love for life have flowed through me in my ability to create. I am 27 years old, and I hope to continue my artistic career, exceed, and excel in it throughout my lifetime.
