About me:
I was manufactured seven days prior to the death of the Disco Era and placed upon the earth by benevolent forces engaged in a war against global mediocrity. I was sent to infiltrate, document and download the world I see around me. However, I see the world in colors, shapes and their relationships to each other. My paintings are the products of my research.
