Teaches at Brushstrokes + Beverages™

I was born in the beautiful city of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico but raised in Southern California. I am a self-taught artist and have been drawing as far back as I can remember. I learned to draw by watching and studying the people, places, and things of my everyday life. My work has been described as a clash between fine art and street art with influences ranging from graphic novels to tattoo art.

I am uncommitted to any particular medium and love working with pencil, ink, acrylics, oils, aerosols, and digital mediums.

Some subject matters that catch my attention include political issues and their movements, religion/spirituality, human rights, equality, global current affairs, unapologetic self-expression, and anything that can spark up a conversation.
