My name is Richard Medina.
I am a graphic designer, artist, and problem-solver. I have self-studied graphic design for 5 years, and I have taken art and design classes from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. I am also taking private graphic design lessons with Doug Jennings, graphic designer and illustrator. I created this website to showcase my portfolio and blog about art and design. I am always looking for ways to challenge myself and increase my knowledge and skill.

The Art Kit: Basic
The Art Kit is a boxed set of basic miniature art supplies. It is my first foray into packaging design and entrepreneurship. I designed and hand made fifty kits, which I am selling through Ebay. You can buy them here: bit.ly/19a2jau
