Project by Robert Stadnycki from Harrisburg, Pa.

Robert Stadnycki described himself while growing up as "shy, awkward and geeky". The only time he felt truly at ease was when he was creating his art. He was successful at it at an early age, receiving scholarships to summer programs and eventually to college. He's still creating art in a variety of mediums and remaining true to himself.
