Artist Statement
“I focus on acrylic painting and have dabbled in an array of mediums including watercolor, spray paint, charcoal, and clay. At a young age, my sister Christine and I created one of my characters called Mi. We would draw that character on everything such as schoolbooks, notepads, desks, walls, etc. In 2022, I had visions of multiple paintings of Mi and thus, also creating Mo as a character to go alongside it. Many of my inspirations and style of painting comes from modern artists and contemporary pop art, although I do enjoy abstract painting as well. Painting Mi and Mo has let me relive aspects of my childhood and transform them into my way of thinking now.”
