My favorite artist is Victor Moscoso.
Born in Spain, Victor was the first of the rock poster artists of the 60’s era with formal academic training and experience. After studying art at Cooper Union in New York City and at Yale University, he moved to San Francisco in 1959. There, he attended the San Francisco Art Institute, where he eventually became an instructor. Moscoso's use of vibrating colors was influenced by painter Josef Albers, one of his teachers at Yale. He was the first of the rock poster artists to use photographic collage in many of his posters. Professional lightning struck in the form of the psychedelic rock and roll poster for the San Francisco "Hippy" dance halls and clubs. Victor Moscoso's posters for the Family Dog dance-concerts at the Avalon Ballroom and his Neon Rose posters for the Matrix were to bring his work international attention in the "Summer of Love", 1967.

 Art is an open door which many people use to express themselves in a variety of different ways. As for me, I use art as a way to figure out who I am becoming and how.  When I paint or draw and create something and compare it to my old work, I see the different techniques and how I've grown as an artist and as a person. When I spend my time creating a new piece, my inspiration is my memories and when I am done I perceive the type of feelings I genuinely had for that time being in a new light. As I consider my many options as a young adult I see myself not creating art for money, but rather for personal enjoyment.
