My work includes collage, oil painting, acrylic painting, alcohol markers, and sketchbook pages. My style is bold and blocky, with visible strokes that give my work texture. In my sketchbook, I draw whatever catches my interest at the moment, usually skulls, people, and lots of color. I get most of my ideas from things I see around me or from images I find online.
When I start, I like to start with a big splash of color and then build on top of it, letting the piece take shape naturally. But when I paint, I need a clear goal, or I’ll struggle to finish. My process is a mix of going with the flow and making sure I have a direction.
Even if my art has meaning to me, I want people to see it in their own way. Everyone brings their thoughts and experiences to a piece, and I like that. My influences come from all over, bits of old paintings, random images, and things I can’t always name. My work is about exploring ideas and letting the viewer decide what it means to them.
