monsters & stuff
My name is Helena and I am a neurodivergent, queer, Guatemalan-American, lowbrow artist. I focus on expressing internal emotions through self portraiture. At times these self portraits are a combination of horror and cute, meant to signify the societal norms we are pressured to follow. One example is carrying on with our daily lives as "normal" without acknowledging or accepting the heavy burdens within. They've become a way for me to express things I haven't quite figured out the words for and have fun with it. They're monsters trying to live their best lives.I have a B.F.A. in Fine Arts from the Corcoran College of Art + Design and currently run my own business selling art online and at in-person events.Please contact me through email or Instagram with any inquiries. I take commissions on a case by case basis so please ask! ♡
