Today's Canvas: Zachary Gunner Madrigal


Artist: Zachary Gunner Madrigal
Major: Marketing Management at Virginia Tech

Class: Junior

BIO: Born in Fairfield, California. Spent most of his life in Virginia. Zachary got into art because he did not have a lot of friends at the beginning of high school and wanted to find a way to express himself to others. He sustained his interest when he found his voice through art. He developed his own style, "It's kind of cartoony mixed with abstract. I do things somewhat playful but a little grotesque at the same time."


Top 3 Favorite Artists:

1. James Jean

2. Shepard Fairey

3. Jeff Soto
Zachary is currently the director of graphic design for the student organization Virginia Tech Union (VTU). You can find his work on some of the VTU flyers and posters around campus. He has no shows planned but would like to do an art show at the XYZ gallery on Main Street.
