Creating art has always been a natural extension of who I am. I love the act of creating visual expression based on my personal interests.

Lowbrow style art with a cartoonish style or lowbrow pop-surrealism with a hint of retro aesthetic. I also like dipping my toe into the horror and macabre. A lot of my work has vibes taken from vintage aesthetics (such as Mid-century or 1920s rubber hose) and taken into a creepier direction.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration within the various topics that I've taken an interest in- such as history, various folklore, and oddities. As someone who has always had an eclectic set of interests, I find that artistic inspiration comes from curiosity and that desire to uncover that next rabbit hole of knowledge that you never knew existed.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off the debt accrued from my cat's surgery, as well as work on reinvesting the money into my art business (buying supplies, going to networking events/shows, promotional materials, etc.).
