I didn’t follow a traditional path into art. In fact, I was expelled from high school for graffiti — at the time it was rebellion, but looking back, it was the earliest sign that creating was something I couldn’t suppress.
My school didn’t even offer art as a subject. Everything I’ve built has come from obsession, experimentation, and the decision to teach myself — day after day.
I wasn’t naturally skilled at drawing when I started. What carried me forward was something stronger: the refusal to let that stop me.
Discipline plays a big role in my life. Whether it’s in the gym or the studio, I’ve learned that consistency shapes both the body and the work.
Music is a constant in my process. Artists like Tom Day create a space where ideas surface and evolve on the canvas.
I’m drawn to stillness — winter, quiet environments, and spaces where I can think clearly. That same energy often finds its way into my work.
I come from a small family, with one younger sister. That sense of closeness and introspection has influenced how I see the world.
I’ve always imagined a space where art lives freely — open walls, minimal distraction, and room to let ideas expand.
Choosing to become an artist was the biggest risk I’ve taken. There was no guarantee it would work — only the certainty that I had to try.
Outside the studio, I keep things simple — good food, routine, and balance. The clearer the mind, the stronger the work.
