I AM ART. My creative process is SoulSweet, a pure, divine, connection between me and God. Strokin' and Flowing is how I give Thanks.

I am my best muse because I know myself the best. Creating Self Portraits as Paintings or Drawings intertwined with culture, fashion, and nature that invoke every raw emotion from love, happiness, serenity, hope, wonder to sadness and deep thought is the most honest way I fulfill my duty as an artist, capture my own truth, master peace, and give thanks to my very own Creator.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in music, everyday people, aromas, nature, dreams, conversations, colors, natural patterns, other artists and more. It's the little things that inspire me to paint.
