Creating is what drives me and it’s how I process the world around me. It allows me to bring my thoughts and dreams to life.

I started my artistic journey with drawing I remember early experiences creating portraits through Mixedmedia. Fashion illustration came later then film photography now those mediums informs my AI artwork today. I love to create short reels incorporating these styles to form a whole.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration daily mostly through nostalgia in popular culture, fashion and art history but there have been times when inspiration comes through my dreams. My work begins with research artists like Salvador Dali, Richard Avedon, David LaChapelle , Jean-Michel Basquiat and Antonio Lopez are a few that inspire my creativity and process.
What would you do with $25,000?It would be a dream to find a space where I can produce more artwork. I haven’t painted or photographed because I focus my energies on creating digital works. Given the opportunity I’d utilize that money to explore painting, film and photographing people. I’d also update my camera, equipment, computer and artistic tools.
