BIOGRAPHY

B I O G R A P H Y

Art is his native language, an intuitive expression of emotion beyond words. Pasadena-raised, with a creative lineage dating back to the 1880s, he’s been active since adolescence, blending rational abstraction and spatial computing, filtered through experiences gathered across continents.


Balancing tradition and innovation, his community-driven work includes public projects like LA Metro Art Buses and “Art on TAP” debit cards, highlighting his commitment to accessible, roaming art. His work is housed in collections such as the Cain Library and the AAMB Museum, and has been recognized by celebrity influencers and institutions, including Outward Bound Adventures, CSUDH’s Dymally Institute, LA City Council District 9, the Central Avenue Jazz Festival, and the Department of Cultural Affairs. Creative contributions have also drawn the attention of notable companies such as Netflix, Patagonia, Nike, and the LA Lakers.


With over three decades of practice, he continues to fuse art, technology, and cultural storytelling, defining identity while connecting communities through a contemporary visual language.

STATEMENT

S T A T E M E N T

His practice moves between traditional and contemporary approaches, drawing from personal experience, cultural influences, and the environments around him. He sees public spaces as opportunities for connection, where art becomes part of everyday life rather than something confined to galleries or institutions.

He has brought his work into shared spaces, creating accessible visual experiences that reflect the communities they inhabit. He believes public art can transform familiar surroundings, spark curiosity, and reveal new perspectives through a language that transcends words.
