teen illustrator adds a fresh aesthetic to known faces with her vibrant digital art
One gift of technology, is that every artist is granted a homegrown platform for expression- and in the case of 17-year old Emma Rgt is able to hop on a wave, and completely make it her own.
The France-based illustrator is taking an art form and personalizing it with a vibrancy not so explored. Taking the familiar faces of modern pop-culture and adding an enticing artistic spin, the artist brings the essence of digital art to a tangible level. With subjects ranging from Joey Badass, to Cardi, to Kelela, and everyone in-between; her stylized attention to detail makes every piece clear in its process, and the growth is undeniable as one travels through.
It’s like… we already knew the youth did not come to play in terms of creation and entrepreneurship, but globally it’s getting clearer that no art form is safe from the shape-shifting of the young mind. So clear the way and check out some of our favorites of Emma Rgt’s below!
