"My Journal" is an oil/acrylic painting. The original is for sale as well as prints in a variety of sizes. "My Journal" is a piece that I poured myself into, it is very personal and quite literally, a journal. I was a competitive soccer player and I was battling with my love/hate relationship for the sport and all the emotional/mental trauma it had caused me throughout my lifetime. At this time, I was also lost in an abusive relationship and unsure where I was mentally and what to do at the time. I used this piece as my personal journal, to decompose my current mental state. I did not plan what I was going to write, I just started writing and everything just came to the surface. Towards the end, I wanted a way to cover up my words, my insides. But I still wanted people to recognize certain words and understand that the painting was writing. So therefore came the idea to somewhat cover things up and pour down the canvas. To the public, this may seem like a puzzle and you cant decipher what it says, and you are right. But what do you think the words say? Maybe they turn into your own words, turn into your own journal and truths?

I am a 26 year old living in downtown San Diego. I grew up in LA county and went to school at UC Berkeley. I went into college as a collegiate soccer player with hopes of playing professionally. That did not come to fruition, so I began to think about what else I was passionate about, and that answer was art! I was successful in the art program with a lot of features in UC Berkeley's Art Gallery, Kroeber Hall. I had the incredible opportunity to study under great artists like John McNamara, Brody Reiman, Craig Nagasawa, Indira Morre, Randy Hussong, and many more. Once graduating in 2015, I decided to move back down south where I could be warm again and afford my rent :) Since being in San Diego, I leased my own art studio and became a working artist and curator. In 2018, I produced and curated 2 large galas in San Diego's oldest most historical art building, The Brokers Building Gallery. Both galas featured between 10-20 local and international artists. I recently decided to take a leap and become an Art Consultant for National Geographic, this job I did not enjoy so I am working on building as an artist and pushing myself to create consistently again.
