About the Artist
I’m an artist from Pittsburgh, PA who specializes in painting faces and figures using oil, acrylic or spray paint to tell a story through realism and the elements of street art. My aim is to create art that connects to and inspires the viewer. My childhood was full of cartoons and cool characters and my goal is to bring that fun, play and storytelling into my art.
