Gallery Night Pensacola’s May featured artist Dylan Nadsady is an illustrator and fine artist who works in all mediums of analog and digital 2D art and illustration. He is inspired by the details and themes that shape the structure of our culture and world as human beings. Through raw emotions, he creates whimsical images that tell stories and provides an intense visual experience for the brain and soul. These themes and emotions are broken down and rearranged through layers of medium and process, to become new hyperbole portals into fantastic characters and worlds close-to-home, but out of this reality. Aka, “Acidic Illusion”.
