Personal History

I began painting around 16, though it was a rekindled relationship from my childhood that never truly faded. The relationship was catalyzed from encounters with entheogens which greatly effected the trajectory of my life and interests.

I soon realized the power of the “ Third-Eye” and humans ability to ‘see’ in a completely different sense. From these conceptual beginnings a new interest soon was fostered which emphasized the craftsmanship of art, and of a respectful journey of ascension in order to help ourselves, each other, and all of life.
