Porsche Major is a self-taught mixed media artist who discovered a passion for drawing at the tender age of 4 years old.  Ironically, the first picture she drew was of a car.  From childhood into her young adult years, Porsche suppressed the urge to live a life filled with drawing, color and creating art. She went on to gain a bachelor’s in Accounting and pursued her career in the corporate world. Until…one day, she did it! She ditched her skirts and blazers for painters pants and boiler suits for good.  It took her moving to the one city where you can’t deny your passion to finally kick her habit of meeting the expectations of others, Los Angeles.  In LA, she started out utilizing her office savvy while working as a studio manager for a prominent and lively media art studio.  While spending her days around some of the industries leading designers, animators and creative directors, this is where she learned about the world of design and turning art into a lucrative career on a digital platform. She began to see art as way more than a hobby, but an actual career! She has since gone on to study some of the great contemporary artists of the 20th century, black art, and females in the Arts.  Her overall art influences include: Annie Lee, Hebru Brantley, Sue Tsai, Laci Jordan and the artist couple duo Al-Baseer Holly and Christina Martinez.  Today, she lives a freelance artist life filled with painting canvases, designing vector art for clients, and dabbling in set design for music video productions.

Her art focuses primarily on the use of bright colors and the way they make people feel, while incorporating various subjects of interest: food, the culture, and all things nostalgic…with a hint of symbolism (nothing too deep).  Porsche is originally from the Washington, DC area but lives in Los Angeles, CA!
