Artists statement
“Where do I start? Lol. At 8 years old my father said to me “I don’t want you to ever be like me.” And all I could think about for weeks and months after that was NOW WHAT??? I was so confused. So after years of struggling to find my identity I decided to take all the good pieces of the many great men I have met in my life and I built the man I wanted to become. I grew up in a chaos and as a survival skill I learned to pay attention to what motivates people to do what they do. I hope my simplistic style of art is a reminder that everything can be so simple. We make it complicated."
