Which ‘hood are you in?
I was born in Toronto and I currently reside in Vaughan. However, most of the time I’m in Toronto meeting with clients, interior designers and custom home builders.
What do you do?
Artist until I find a real job.
What are you currently working on?
Currently I’m working on a new series that will hopefully be released next month. I can’t say much about the details, but I will tell you that it will be my largest edition that I have ever released to date. Besides that, I’m always working on commissions for local and international collectors who are looking for custom artwork in specific sizes and mediums.
