Female / 20 years old / ScorpioTalisa's Statement
My name is Talisa Almonte I'm 19 and studied Fashion Design alongside Art and Sculpture at a small magnet school called Design and Architecture Senior High in Miami, Florida. I'm currently a Fashion Design Major at Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City going into my second year.
I grew up doodling with my dad as little girl then developed this idea of becoming an artist just like him until i discovered fashion and decided that that was my calling. I still continue to draw or paint when I can because it's a real passion of mine. I try to always keep a peaceful balance between the two because I enjoy doing both very much.
any questions? don't hesitate to ask or leave comments. I always like to hear good criticism to better my upcoming works.
