About
Born in France and growing up with a suitcase in hand, I have come to impregnate myself with the designs of humanity and nature. Throughout the years I have developed my unique style; skelarizing, which represents the geometric shells which envelope nature. A digitization of the organic. Along with my quirky characters and fantastical ideas, I have created a world where flowers lick happiness into you, ocean goddesses puke out trash, and creatures dance out warnings of dire times to come.
I have been actively painting murals since 2017, a self-taught spray painter and artistic challenge taker, having painted in places such as Mexico, Colombia, Miami and Kansas City among some. While I am not on the road painting murals, I am in my studio in Denver CO, where I currently reside, working on paintings, jewelry, and a novel.
