Sugared Death Fotografia

My name is Elodia and I'm a genderfluid, Mexican-American artist, currently living in the Bay Area, California.I have always been a creative mind since childhood, from traditional mediums such as pencil and paint, to digital mediums such as digital art and digital photography. I gained my passion of photography back in my freshman year of high school and since then it's one of the few mediums that has stuck with me alongside digital art. Though I have found quite a passion with restoring older photos, finding a new passion with another medium.Despite being mainly self-taught, I studied at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco for photography before leaving early for personal reasons. I'm always finding new techniques and tips to learn.

Death has unfortunately been a rather prominent event within my life. Thus with the help of friends, I picked the alias/screenname "Sugared Death" and it's alternate; "Muerte Azucarada". It holds a bit of meaning to me as it's a reference to the sugar skulls used during Dia de los Muertos and feels like it keeps me with my culture and heritage."Muerte Azucarada" is an alternate version of "Sugared Death". It's where I set aside some professionalism and participate with the fandom communities I enjoy. Though most of it now currently just lies with informational posts of events around the world and occasional fandom related post.As social media grows, so does our digital footprint. I figured that sooner or later what I post will be linked back to myself, especially when my both my drawings and photography can easily be linked back to me, so I understood that I should start out with it first before letting it truly affect my work.
