About The Artist

My art journey started in preschool where colouring in was my favourite part of the day. I then realised in primary school that I'm actually good at this and I started drawing dragon ball Z cartoon characters and Pokémon which was very popular at the time for my peers and I would charge them and they would actually pay.I also entered a lot of art competitions in primary school and most times I would place in the top 3.In high school was when things really changed and evolved for me I learnt a lot of different art movements and styles and started exploring more. After lots of confusion during my university years and in the job market I was struggling to come to terms of what type of artist I wanted to be. I then started selling art for a very popular art gallery. This woke up something amazing in me . Everything I paint is from my heart and imagination. I never know what a painting will turn out to be, I am just as surprised when things are revealed to me on the canvas. This made it very clear the path I want to take in my life and this is where I am at.....
