ARTIST STATEMENT
My mural design is an abstract inspired piece of Pico de gallo featuring bold colors to create this pattern. I wanted my painting to be eye-catching, fun, and vibrant. When creating work I like to focus on how shapes and colors interact with each other in an object and how I can put my own twist on it. I created this design to put emphasis on bold paint strokes and movement in the artwork.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
