Photography and Studio Art
Over the years of my studies, my body of work and choice of mediums continue to evolve as I explore my brand. My aspirations are to become a full-time artist and later on a professional art educator. I mainly create paintings, tattoo illustrations, and photographs.
The five photos displayed here are a curated group of a larger body of work in progress.
During our time in quarantine, a joy of mine is the bike trips I take around the neighborhoods with my brothers, which would have otherwise gone unexperienced. As we explore (for the first time) the roads and living spaces that are larger than us, I take on a newfound experience of the meaning of quarantine and the meaning of a home. I try to capture all that is around me by photographing the frames I find is the most beautiful, exhilarating, or daring. Some of the photographs are fleeting moments taken on a bike with my hands off the handlebars, and others carefully shot on-foot during pit stops. These places are my temporary homes, the people my temporary companions. They are what keeps on moving as we all hang in an indefinite pause.
