Designer/Street Artist/ Illustrator/Painter and basically every other visual medium I can sink my teeth into.Currently make my living as a Designer, but I try to maintain a balance between all the creative mediums I pursue. I'm not much into talking about myself, so my attitude in a nutshell is "Failures to cope with life's situation must be laid, in the end, to a restriction of consciousness. War and Temper tantrums are the makeshifts of ignorance; regrets are illuminations come to late"....(Joseph Campbell).
