I was born and raised in Buffalo, New York. Art has a strong presence in my family. My mother is talented at drawing as well as making blankets and towels amoung other crafty items. She is loath to abmit it, but she is also a wizard with charcoal. My father can draw as well, but his passion is in photography and videography. Their house is full of photos, portraits and comfy blankets that bear testament to this.
I began creating my own style of art at an early age; my mother says that I have changed my artistic style at least 8 times over the years. I was never concerned with conformity, for me doing the same thing a hundred times is like eating the same thing for lunch every day. I started off with the simplest notebook lined paper, number two pencils and ball point pens. I moved on to color pencils and markers befor playing with acrylics, oils, spray paints and even clay. I am currently exploring oils most in
