Learn MoreWhat is your favorite type of art to create?
I love creating portraiture, capturing the everyday people and nuanced expressions, the beauty of life, while also creating a surrealist viewpoint from my own imagination, dreams, or digital manipulations
Where do you find inspiration?
Inspiration come from everywhere and everything, what I see in a daily basis, what I experience from happiness to sadness, what I can imagine and bring into the physical world, the people I surround myself with, their own personal struggles that relate to mine, or struggles I can’t relate with and form a new found understanding of what I cannot understand. Everything is inspiration and is brought into my art realm
What would you do with $25,000?
Bring me to the potential I know I have, be able to commit my time to my art practice and have freedom to create without financial struggles. Create works that I have trapped in my mind due to the financial restrictions, not be limited to what I can or can’t do, let myself be free to create.
