The Artist

Realism trained by tattoo needles, finished on canvas.

I split my time between studios in Portugal, New York, and Los Angeles, painting pop culture icons and portraits with the same precision I learned tattooing skin — every highlight, shadow, and halftone dot placed by hand.

My work lives somewhere between fine art and street culture: photorealistic rendering pushed through a lens of bold color, comic-book texture, and a healthy sense of humor. Originals are one-of-one; prints are limited and numbered.
