ARTIST STATEMENT
My Work as a Visual Artist focuses on Figurative, Portrait, and Symbolic subjects in a variety of media including graphite pencil, pen and ink, watercolor and acrylic painting. I seek to explore what we call “Surreal”, “Visionary” and Dream-related states through stylistic variation within an Visually Integrative Spectrum including elements of Realism, Surrealism, Visionary Art, Fantasy & Dark Art, as well as Pop & Comic/Cartoon Art and Illustration. As a Neurodivergent Visual Artist of Mixed Ethnicity connected to both the Indigenous Island tribal roots of Puerto Rico and Italian-German- English (European) cultural roots I draw from a nuanced Multifaceted Inner Realm that informs and enriches my work in an ever-evolving and expanding ongoing process.
