This week, Elise talks with jazzy drawing artist Doug Trachtman.
Doug Trachtman is a 26 year old artist, musician, and food pantry coordinator. He grew up in Allentown, Pa, went to school at Temple University and is now living in the Lehigh Valley area. Doug began making art as a child and drew frequently until high school when he took drawing class and hated it. In college Doug got back into creating both music and visual art. During his senior year of college, he turned his apartment into a makeshift art gallery and hosted two art shows that featured his own art and some friends' art. Post college, Doug has been working on creating a brand around his art and trying to sell locally. His work is characterized by its bright colors and various happy subjects.
His work is currently on-view and available for purchase at Art Beat Cafe, 432 state ave Emmaus,pa 18049
