Artist Statement
Originally I started out as a graffiti artist doing my art whenever and where ever possible.As I got older I decided to focus my creativity wanting to grow as an individual and a artist, so I went to school, and graduated with a degree in graphic design. As I've come to know and understand where I want to be as an artist, I have taken all of the influences as a carni, a graffiti artist ,a graphic designer, and what I am and what I like as a person to create my pieces of art work. My goal is for everyone to create their own ideas and stories from what I offer in my art.
