Currently Lives and Works in Seattle, WA About the Artist-
Growing up in the farmland and later living in
the city I developed a taste for urban street art such as wheat pasted
posters and flier's, stickers, stencils, murals and spray painted
graffiti. The "underground" and "outsider" art became part of my life.Being self taught and
having my first solo art show at the age of sixteen gave a new meaning
to being an artist, I realized the potential in becoming a professional
artist. Using mainly spray paint, stencils and ink as mediums I create images on almost any printable surface.I like to incorporate the old
traditions of paper cutting with a newer urban approach to painting. I use my photography and turn the photos into multi layered paper stencils, over the years animals have became a personal favorite. I'm
constantly trying new techniques and mediums to fine tune my work.
