Art gives me peace, control, and a way to express myself without having to explain anything.

I love creating manga, realism, and graffiti, blending bold character work with lifelike detail and raw, expressive lettering. My style focuses on strong contrast, clean structure, and dynamic flow so every piece feels powerful, readable, and built to move with the body.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the people in my life, the books I read, and the music I listen to, pulling pieces of emotion, story, and energy from each. Those influences shape my work into something personal and expressive, where every design carries a mood, a memory, or a feeling that goes beyond just the image itself.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use $25,000 to open a local art studio with my fiancé, creating a space where we can both fully do what we love every day. It would be a place not just for creating, but for teaching and building community sharing our skills, inspiring others, and helping people grow creatively while turning our passion into something real.
