Artist Statement & Exhibitions
FROM THE ARTIST
I founded Inferno Art Studio L.L.C. in 2012 where I divide my time between commissioned art and my own work. I love to constantly learn so I utilize diverse subject matters and mediums; from oil and watercolors, to graphic art and design, enamels and mural work. As I grow as human I find myself wanting to give back to those doing good and so I've started my next page with the Art for Good Project.
My artwork takes an explorative eye of the world around me, often seeing culture and landscape through my adventurous nature and addiction to travel. My subjects are as broad as nature and humanity are interesting, and I find new attitudes in my work the more of the world I see. I use a variety of mediums but my approach to portray the feeling around me remains the same. I try to spend as much time making art from life as I do in the studio. Each series or body of work changes in subject matter but my style and voice speak through the pieces. Figure art is what I studied in college, and is what I am the most passionate about.
