A rtist statement: My art uses graphic design elements such as flat planes of color and linework to display the vibrancy found in nature. Crisp shapes work in tandem with organic texture to create an illustrative style. My mural work can be found in Fort Worth on a 14ft x 20ft flood levee along the Trinity River depicting an underwater view of the river, an 8ft x 16ft mural for the Bedford Fire Department, as well was a 10ft x 25ft linework mural depicting sights in DFW in a restaurant in Grapevine.

A rtist statement: My style is vibrant and illustrative. The landscape represents rural TX. The portrait is of Black people from McKinney. They represent the existence /contributions of the Black community although jobs and resources weren't afforded to them like some at the Mckinney Millhouse during the early 1900s.

Artist statement: My artistic style captures the beautiful yet sometimes desolate spirit of Texas. Strokes of bold, unexpected color enliven the earthy neutrals of the landscape. This mural will capture the vibrant colors and landscape of the American Southwest, rendered in the style and pattern of the iconic Oaxacan animal sculptures of Mexico.
