Art has been my constant, starting with graffiti during my skateboarding days and evolving into a wide-ranging exploration of styles and techniques. From bold 3D forms and spray paint to delicate calligraphy, oil painting, figure drawing, and even gilding with gold leaf, I’ve always sought to expand my creative toolbox and challenge myself as an artist.
My work is deeply influenced by my journey and by artists who embody mastery and innovation—Mirko Reisser, Felipe Pantone, Greg Simkins, and others who’ve inspired me to find my own balance between tradition and experimentation. I bring these influences together to create work that moves between the grit of street art, the precision of sign painting, and the depth of fine art.
I also draw inspiration from my fascination with quantum mechanics, where concepts like space, time, and infinite potential spark new ideas. This curiosity often shapes my approach to art, encouraging me to play with dimensions, layering, and movement to explore what’s possible on the canvas (or wall, or anything else).
At the heart of it all, my goal is to create work that connects—a piece might evoke nostalgia, curiosity, or even just a spark of joy, but it always reflects my drive to grow as an artist and tell stories in fresh and unexpected ways.
