About My Work:

I am a portrait art in simplest terms. My work is very expressive and colorful. I try to match the expression of the portrait with the colors I use. I love using different mediums so I often use spray paint, acrylic, colored pencil, and other dry mediums to capture texture.  I create mainly on cardboard because of the quality it creates. I love cardboard because its not a Fine Art medium to work on but it very accessible and the thought of cardboard breaking down over time, knowing it wont last forever is poetic and powerful with the portrait work I do.
