note

Thanks for visiting my online portfolio! Maybe you can tell a few things about me from my artwork; my feelings, perspectives, where I am from, and what inspires me. Much of my art integrates all those things and more, as can be told from pieces that explore concepts like urbanism, poverty, freedom, and tranquility: the expression of these may or may not be so evident.
