About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to make art and share it with the world!

ABOUT ME

I was confused about what I wanted to do until 8th grade, then a made some silly drawings in art class and people liked them and complimented them. since then Ive been an artist. I paint, sculp, screen print, take pictures, mold whatever I can get my hands on into something new. I always come with some art on hand as gifts for my gracious host!

PHILOSOPHY

culture is an emergent property of you and me.
