It found me, rather than I discovering it from childhood I grew with it; a pen in my hand and a paper made me shine. Since making sketches music came along in the picture and it was organic genuine it happen naturally when put the ink on paper and bumping my head to the beat flowing like a shark. So, now art and music is my life they co-exist feed one another, mind and soul. I find mirth and source of enlightenment when creating what’s in my head and exhaling it out with different formats of visual communication. Life is art and we make it come alive and breathe. My inspiration comes from everything I encounter everyday people, landscape, objects, optical illusions, imagination and the music I make every day. From high school I used to sketch ideas and record my friend’s conversions then create concepts and build images then make songs and sfx. Still to today I find myself doing what I used to do back from high school. It never gets old. Since mom passed away this year she’s the main reason I do what I love, she was my teacher but could not draw. She told me “Do what makes you happy so, that tomorrow when they ask me why you do it? It makes me happy because they can’t it away from you and gives you why”. My mother’s life has inspired me in my art and music. Visual communication: I use CS6 Photoshop to create my ideas and graphics with sketches I made on paper sometimes they are pictures I took with a phone. I’m currently learning how to use coral draw and blender because I’m fascinated by animation and creating a series of cartoons will be a dream come true. Audio and visual: Steinberg Cubase/Fruity Loops/Studio one. These DAWS (digital audio working stations) I make music with them from: podcasts, jingles, voice-overs, SFX, loops, beats, recordings, mixing and mastering and samples. They give me freedom of moment in vast of pictures I made telling a story from visuals to audio. Seeing is believing. An eye never lies and an ear hears the truth.
