about the artist
I’m a self-taught artist based in Los Angeles with a focus on acrylic and digital painting. I’m predominantly interested in symmetry and the use of color, themes I frequently explore. Growing up in Los Angeles, I draw a lot of inspiration from the city I love so much, an influence that appears in a number of my works.
Although art is something I’ve been passionate about from a young age, I actually didn’t study it in college and instead opted to study architecture and business. However, I found that exploring alternate career paths only served to reinforce my love of creating. As devastating as it’s been, the recent pandemic has actually provided me the opportunity to finally focus on my artistic endeavors the way I had always wished I could. During this time, I’ve started a small business painting custom clothing, which has allowed me to combine my enthusiasm for painting and my love of fashion. My business is primarily commissioned pieces, but I actually find that to be rewarding in a way because I have the ability to work with my client, taking in their ideas and translating them into something that is both visually beautiful, as well as meaningful and personal to them. With that being said, my primary medium is acrylic on denim, however I do use digital tools to mock up and flush out my designs, and have also done some completed digital paintings.
