Abstract artist born in Bronx, NYC 1982. I've been painting since I was 6 yrs old and have found a peace and spiritual place when painting.

Sometimes I feel the effect of another person. It's like unwrapping a box and finding different objects inside and trying to make sense out of it. Every moment is discovery.
