Culture and heritage are the roots and inspiration , the struggle my people have gone through and able to portray that through powerful leaders through the decades. Inspired by other artist as Zack de la Rocha who is able to not only empower through his lyrics , he has also empowered me to be proud of my roots and create it through my art pieces.
Where do you find inspiration?Cultural background and racism through the decades during my life, have made me proud of who I am and where I come from. And has inspired me to portray many of my pieces to represent not only me but many who have gone through the same situations for years.
What would you do with $25,000?I would help my oldest son through his college expenses and help my parents who have always been there for me and my children
