Artist Statement     

     Art has always been at the core of who I'am. Long before I ever picked up a tattoo machine, I was drawing, finding a sense of clarity, peace and purpose in the act of creating. For me, creating art is both a meditative process and a form of story telling. Whether it's a portrait, an abstract composition or something more illustrative, I strive to capture emotion and depth in every piece.

     My work is rooted in realism, often blending fine detail with a sense of softness and atmosphere. I'm drawn to expressive faces, natural textures and the play of light & shadow. Much like tattooing, every drawing or painting I create is an opportunity to connect with a subject, story or person.

     Outside of the tattoo studio, my artwork is where I can slow down and explore ideas more freely. Its an extension of the same creative energy that drives my tattooing with a different rhythm and more introspective.

     Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. Every piece you see comes from a place of passion, gratitude and a lifelong love for the craft.
