The purpose of art is two fold: to create a pleasing aesthetic, but also to spark conversation amongst people. The latter is especially important with patrons in this age of instagram and similar social media.My art tends to be a blend of fine art and illustration which is commissioned by both private and commercial clients. Primarily interior walls and large canvases, however, I do tackle exterior walls, windows, bathroom doors, basketball courts, autos - and generally anything the client can think of.
