ANGELINA "GINA"
TOLENTINO
I have an illustrative style, especially notable in my portraits, which tend to have an almost cartoon quality. I also tend to work in saturated palettes rather than muted tones. Although I love a muted aesthetic, I tend to go big on the color scale, like a Hawaiian gecko. I am interested in challenging myself to pare down a big to tell my stories, although I don’t want to question my natural tendancies. I want it to be fun, always. I like to dance when I paint.
