midwestern, graphic designer/artist/illustrator/muralist.

I spend lots of time looking at flickr while at work, I really enjoy portraiture, I get inspired by what I see on here.

Artist Statement:
If my art had to be described in one word, I
would pick “happy,” obnoxiously happy might
be more accurate. Bright colors and huge smiles
fill each and every piece I do.

Rooted both in the tradition of steet art and graphic
design and combining them to make something new.
My work utilizes elements of art found on the streets
and structures them with the hierachy and simplicity
of graphic design.

My goal is to use my art to brighten lives and bring
about positive change in the community. I feel art
can be successful in creating a better world for us all.
