In My Own Words
Hello,
My name is Steven Galekovic. I am a 23-year-old, Jersey Shore-raised artist, who has recently relocated to Southern California. I recently graduated from Otis College of Art and Design with a Bachelors Degree in Graphic Design.
My interests in the visual arts world do not stop with Graphic Design. I have a deep passion for drawing and painting which stems from my love for skateboarding. The bold, unique graphics on the backs of skateboards continuously inspire me to create work of my own to plaster on my boards. Illustrative work of animals and creatures, as well as abstract fine art pieces, such as optical illusions are some of my favorite subjects to create. Often times, I find myself utilizing my illustrative and fine art skills for multiple graphic design projects or ideas.
