From the Artist... Living in New York City has been so influential to my art. From the fashion, to the music, the party culture, and the melting pot of people, I am very grateful to have endless amounts of inspiration surround me. I am a huge fan of color and showcasing a palette that the viewer may have not seen before. My fashion photography experience has sharpened by photography skills and creativity. I am obsessed with Abstract Expressionism and my paintings are certainly influenced by de Kooning and Picasso. A blank canvas does not intimidate me.
