Visual Art – Orlando

It all started with Alien when I was three years old. For some reason my dad thought I was old enough to watch it. After I stopped having nightmares, H.R. Giger\'s surrealism became my inspiration. I started drawing aliens, building models, and painting space marines. My art has also been influenced by music (I\'ve played guitar for 11 years). Now I combine my two passions - art and music - by building 3D mixed media art guitars, paintings and sculptures. I like to contrast mechanical materials with natural, organic elements. I can turn anything into my 3D canvas.
