I'm a former art student that just can't seem to stick to one medium. I dabble in a little bit of everything and I love every minute of it. My work could probably be best described in short as "Bohemian Fantasy" art. Some day I hope to have my art as my main source of income and to be able to travel while still creating my work. In the meantime I'm working a part-time job and trying to figure out this thing called adulthood.
Lilah Flores Creations was created when I was an art student in college. Since then I've sold my work through my Facebook page or at art shows. My artistic style has always varied based on what medium I was using & in college I worked mostly in Ceramics, Printmaking, & Metalwork.
My shop features unique handmade mixed media art & jewelry inspired by the beauty within the natural world & fantasy realms. I myself have a love for anything magical, fantastical, mythical, & supernatural and my creations are my way of bringing those stories to life! My work mimics the beautiful imperfections that can be found in nature while incorporating elements of whimsy. From start to finish, my creations are each one of a kind including the packaging they arrive in. Overall, my work is best described as whimsical, earthy, & organic.
My approach to art is that you should never stop learning new techniques, developing your craft, finding new inspirations, & experimenting with different materials. In my shop you'll find all sorts of creations using a variety of different mediums & techniques. My art may not all look the same but I see my work as a reflection of the various different facets of my personality & the many sources of inspiration that I draw from.
Favourite Visual Artist
Probably Van Gogh because of the immense about of detail and expression that went into his work. You can feel what he was feeling by looking at what he made.
Favourite Movies
Just about anything Disney, the Harry Potter series, the LOTR series, Bridesmaids, Mean Girls, The Notebook, and a select other few. I tend to watch my favorites over and over while I'm working.
Favourite TV Shows
Once Upon a Time, Doctor Who, Supernatural, and a few others.
Favourite Bands / Musical Artists
I like a lot of different kinds of music except maybe not country music, go-go, and reaggae. When I create art I tend to listen to music from whatever is inspiring me or I listen to Enya because it calms me.
Favourite Writers
I honestly don't think I can read anymore. It's hard to focus on the page. It's part of why I create so much.
Favourite Games
Mortal Kombat - It helps when I'm stressed.
Tools of the Trade
Lots of things: stoneware clay, polymer clay, silk ribbon, beads, spray dyes, and much more! It all depends on what my mood is.
Other Interests
It's pretty much all related to art in some way...
