Life and creation are intertwined, which is why I devote my life to creating art. Born and raised in Queens, New York, I am the child of first-generation immigrant parents from Uruguay. From an early age, I was drawn to artistic expression. My mother often found me as a toddler, scribbling on our apartment walls and helping her clean up afterward. Trips to the store would find me gravitating towar
d the arts & crafts section, and my babysitter would leave the TV on art-related shows like Bob Ross and other artists, fueling my inspiration. As I grew up, I continued to pursue my passion for art, with family and friends recognizing my love by gifting me art supplies for holidays and birthdays. My parents enrolled me in art classes outside of elementary school, and later I went on to attend Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Performing and Visual Arts as an art major. I have been fortunate to work with talented photographers, shoot for musicians on music tours, create content for social media, and explore travel photography during solo backpacking trips. My art and photography aim to transport viewers to dreamy, otherworldly places, evoking feelings of freedom, paradise, safety, and fun through the use of colors and perspective. As an artist, I am dedicated to sharing my passion and creating immersive experiences for all to enjoy. To learn more about me and my work, please visit my website at
