About Me

Painting transcends mere technique; it becomes a sacred communion with the divine, as my Tibetan Thangka master once imparted. With every brushstroke, I offer a prayer—an intention imbued with healing energy. For me, painting is not just a skill; it's a spiritual practice, a transformative journey that touches both artist and viewer alike.

My artistic voyage began in 2001 during my apprenticeship as a tattoo artist, but it was my encounters with ayahuasca in the Peruvian jungle that ignited my passion for painting. Guided by luminaries such as Amanda Sage, Alex and Allyson Grey, and Autumn Skye, among others, I delved into various styles and techniques, finding my voice in visionary art. Acrylics on canvas became my medium of choice, allowing me to manifest vibrant visions from the depths of my soul.

Now, drawn by a deep sense of purpose, I feel compelled to share my knowledge and experience. I've found myself teaching the fundamentals of acrylic painting to small groups amidst the lush jungles that once inspired my own artistic awakening. It's a way of giving back, of nurturing the creative spark in others and empowering them to embark on their own transformative journeys through art.
