Statement
Bella Suarez is a watercolor illustrator with an eye for intense detail and a pervasive curiosity towards the morbid. In her work, she enjoys exploring the dichotomy of the beautiful and the horrifying, and the ways in which the two intertwine. She studied illustration at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) and tries to continue being a student of art & her other passions, such as film. Horror illustration is a special interest of Bella’s, with a great deal of her work’s influence coming from film and comics on the dark and disturbing. She likes pretty things, too, though, and fashion illustration/fashion design and classic shojo art are also large influences upon her work. She wants to make things that are beautiful, but also things that will scare you.
