Lakeview Village

Rejuvenation Haiku

My work is a journey to the unknown. Where nature and control meets. Going into something I don’t understand. The abstract art I create I find healing, rejuvenation and fulfillment of self. I am influenced by the movement of nature, calligraphy,graffiti and ancient designs such as baybayin, Paisley, sacred geometry. I love to blend realism into my work because a lot of people don’t like abstract due to not being able to not understand so this helps me connect with that realm of people as well. I use both aerosol and paint brush to freestyle create my murals. Lots of layering of creating and destroying until I’m content about the masterpiece. What also makes the mural Beautiful is the community around the peace while I’m creating it.

"There’s too much darkness out here. The world needs reassurance, and hope. The world needs rejuvenating energies and revitalization and light. [Artists] are the backbone of culture."
