I'm Kennedy Highland, a self-taught artist based in Iowa City, Iowa. I'm passionate about exploring the beauty and complexity of the natural world and the human form. My work delves into themes of the grotesque and horror, capturing raw emotion and intricate detail through pencil, pen, and alcohol markers. While these are my primary tools, my experience spans a variety of mediums, allowing me to adapt and innovate with every piece.
My journey has led me to showcase my art in notable events such as the 2021 Morbid Muse Art and the 2024 Dubuque Area Arts Collective Skate Deck Show. Beyond exhibitions, I have years of experience designing tattoos and creating custom commissions, blending my artistic voice with clients' visions.
Art, for me, is about pushing boundaries—both in skill and self-expression. I'm driven by the desire to grow and connect with others through my work.
Feel free to explore my portfolio, and don't hesitate to reach out for commissions, collaborations, or a conversation about art.
