Current Work

                                                                     My Candyland
This piece was one of my favorites simply because it's a representation of what I loved as a child. I drew myself in my own Candyland and I am the person in charge of my very own gummy bear army. I used many colors but mostly pink in order to try a new approach since most people don't prefer to make pink the main color of an art piece.

                                                                       Blue Jellyfish
This is an analogous painting that show-cases jellyfish swimming about their normal routine. They don't realize that in the background the shadowy figure is a sea turtle which preys on jellyfish.

                                                                     In The Dream
This is my graphic novel about a dream I had.In the dream I go to a castle and get kidnapped by a weird human-like creature only to wake up and find out that it was all a dream.

                                                                     The Ring
This piece is done both in ebony pencil and prismacolor and is a conceptual piece. The ring is black or has no color and turns into a bunch of color birds. That image is a representation of the not existent into something full of life.

Concentration

  

My concentration is about portraying my Aztec culture’s artistic nature. Aztec art deals with a lot of figures, designs and color, so I wanted to create pieces that signified an Aztec’s ritualistic background. Aztecs have a civilized yet beastly nature, so my concentration depicts the artistic side of the Aztec nature.
In my pieces I showcased the use of color, pattern, and Aztec warriors. In my pieces I used feathers with a lot of color, because during ceremonies Aztecs wore head-dresses full of feathers with many different colors. The use of patterns in my pieces demonstrate how Aztecs used a lot of design in their culture and religious background.

Breadth

                                                                    Whimsical Land
I made this piece more abstract then most landscapes. The trees seem to come alive more because i gave the roots,branches, and trunks of the trees a more curvy look almost like hands.

                                                                   Stacked Emotions
The chairs stacked together represent a family full of people with completely different emotions and personalities. The reason that they're tumbled together is because they are fighting one another over personal issues.
