“I primarily work in oil and acrylic on canvas. My painting style draws from Art Deco, with a strong influence from Tamara de Lempicka. In graphic design, my approach leans more toward street and pop art, inspired by artists like Banksy.”
Where do you find inspiration?“I’m inspired by fashion, architecture, and street culture. I’m drawn to contrast, structure, and anything that carries strong form and emotion.”
What would you do with $25,000?“I would use $25,000 to fully build out my Art Deco series and turn it into an experience, not just paintings, but products and storytelling. That includes prints, stickers, apparel, scarves, and design-forward gloves. I’d also invest in teaching artists how to build the business side of their work, and explore creating an editorial-style publication blending fashion, cars, architecture, and art.”
