The word alone describes my style, not because I am the only artist of my kind, but because I want my work to reflect the idea of originality. Artists always try to find ways to be unique, but they may never be satisfied when striving for perfection.
Being born in a small rundown town in Los Angeles CA, Huntington Park holds a piece of my heart. Stockton served as a liminal stage helping me decide which direction I would pursue. Now living in the heart of the Silicon Valley, San Jose has become one of the most influential cities in my life.
Inspiration is drawn from more then just a city; it is derived from all of life's joys and sorrows. It can be measured by the experiences one faces and overcomes and it influences the way one lives and thinks. Coming from a creative family, I used different outlets to express my creativity. As I grew, so did my reasons for creating artwork; a fun past time became self expression. I didn't let the dilemmas of my life suppress me, instead I used it as a way to break through stereotypes and motivate me to be the best. I moved to San Jose to finish my studies and surround myself with great inspiration; everyday I learn something new.
I anticipate the day that I can say, “I have seen it all.”
