Sarah Navigato
BFA in Illustration
“My life-long passion for animals inspires me to create. Sparking interest in these creatures is my way of sharing information about them. While sketching and studying animals, I discover new thing I wouldn’t have noticed before. Learning new details about animals motivates me. My imagination runs wile as I ask myself questions like, “What if?” Creating serves as a way for me to express the information I learn about the animals in an entertaining way. I emphasize interesting facts in a way that makes the viewer want to learn more. Combining them together to create strange hybrids highlights their visual or behavioral similarities. Made-up hybrids or a real-life animals in an unrealistic environment are some ways I create interest. However it catches the viewer’s eye, I want them to become curious and want to investigate further to find out why certain elements are the focal points of my work.”
Congratulations Sarah!!!
