ARTIST STATEMENT

When creating a piece, I always ensure that I’m telling the story I want to tell. Growing up in an environment where language barriers and communication issues were shared, art was the only thing that helped me speak my mind. Whether working in graphic design or illustration, I pay extra attention to the elements I choose to include in my pieces. My philosophy is that everything should have a purpose, a story to tell the viewer. I’m a storyteller at heart, and as an artist, I value the innovation of finding new ways to communicate. I primarily work digitally, as It provides me the flexibility I need to make changes for my clients when needed.
