Bio

About Me: I perceive my art as a gateway to the subconscious mind. My artistic journey began during my teenage years, fueled by the raw energy of punk rock, the rhythm of hip-hop, and the expressive allure of street art. From that point onward, I've been immersed in the captivating worlds of murals, paintings, and digital creations.

The Inspiration: My creative muse finds its spark in moments of ecstasy and the cadence of music. I aspire to infuse my art with the same captivating allure as a mesmerizing song – something that draws you in, beckoning you to revisit it time and again. I convey these emotions and moods through a vivid palette of colors and rich symbolism.

The Journey: In 2017, I embarked on my first mural project, and within a year, I had made the transition to becoming a full-time artist. Since then, my canvas has expanded to encompass over 45 murals, countless paintings and illustrations, and an enriching journey of connections with remarkable individuals who have transformed my life.

My Message: My art's message is as diverse as the pieces themselves, often intertwined with themes of mental health, optimism, and the intricate interconnectedness of existence. I frequently explore the symbolism of the human mind and its profound ability to shape our perception of reality.

Influence and Technique: Rooted in the vibrant subcultures of 1980s street art, rock 'n' roll, and hip-hop, my work emanates the spirit of bold lines, unconventional color palettes, and embellishments like polka dots and stars. My process involves using sharpie markers for intricate drawings and employing spray paint or brushes for mural projects, depending on their location.

Current Focus: Presently, my creative energies are channeled into mural artistry, alongside the exciting endeavor of opening a tattoo studio. Equipped with my newly acquired passport, I'm determined to paint murals beyond the borders of the USA. Traveling the world to create murals and realizing my dream of owning a tattoo shop are milestones I've yearned for since my youth, and I'm eagerly embracing this new phase of my artistic career.

Exhibitions and Achievements: I've hosted several intimate solo exhibitions within my city and displayed my art in various Front Range shops in Colorado. My creative journey has also graced the covers of two magazines, with over 45 murals and five years as a full-time artist standing as my most cherished accomplishments.
