My work lives in what I call Renaissance 2.0 A fusion of classical influence and modern innovation. I create minimalist contemporary figures and portraiture, often layered with mixed media, geometric elements, and charcoal to give form to both structure and emotion. I’m also interested in how art can evolve beyond the canvas, exploring ways to connect physical work with digital experiences and new forms of ownership. Including the elements of digital twins, on-chain provenance, and interaction.

I draw inspiration from both the old world and the trailblazers. Artists such as Dalí, da Vinci, Picasso, Michelangelo, Basquiat, Monet, Renoir, and Emily Carr. The imagery and symbolism in my work feels both otherworldly and deeply rooted in something ancient. I’m drawn to the idea that the future isn’t separate from the past. It is shaped by what it endures. I am inspired by the “where” we are on the human timeline, this is the renaissance 2.0, The future requires we honour great masters.

With $25,000, I would host my own venue for Miami Artweek 26 so for the first time all 7 Angels can be displayed together. I would elevate my studio to its full potential, refine techniques, expand on the ideas and materials, to bring my vision fully to life through original fine art pieces. In addition to rare 1/1 works I would create multiple mini series designed to be accessible to everyone, so the beauty and experience of my work can live in people’s homes and hearts everyday.
