My art is sweet, provocative & controversial. I create what I love and passionate about, every piece has a story behind, most of them reflects everyday life that we all share, referencing emotional expressions, double meaning pun, some twisted slang and humor, music we love, movies and books we grew up with, political and social statements, some pieces are the combination of the visual and verbal context hovering between comedy and tragedy.
