Inspiration:
The inspiration for this body of work comes from everyday life and the layers of life that make up a whole. Each one of my pieces incorporates different layers and iconic nostalgic imagery from comic books, music, logos and patterns. There are always subtle subliminal messages in each piece that draw from pop culture. I tend to use loud and vibrant colors because nothing says in your face happiness like some bright color. Lastly the techniques that I use come from years of creating stencils, painting and illustration; each piece is a mash-up of pop culture and iconic imagery created to give you a stimulating visual experience.
