Artist Statement

Art is in my blood. Art is in my heart and mind. Ive been chasing this dream since I was 6yrs old. Im a versatile artist creating works on canvas, natural maple wood skate board decks, and on original antique ledger paper. I dabble in acrylics(canvas/skate board decks) and colored pencil/ black ink (ledger paper) creating must see imagery highlighting my traditional Jemez Pueblo heritage designs. I also love to smash the Star Wars culture with my own by recreating characters and stylizing them with Native Flair!
