(Artist Bio)
Alix Branwyn is an illustrator and fine artist living in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. While she works primarily in oils, her mixed history of prior work in the art world, including a period of time as a tattoo artist, has inspired her to be more experimental in materials choice and methods of creation. Her work focuses on darker themes but with an aim to bring beautiful color and design to imagery that would otherwise be simply macabre.
