The shape of my experiences as a larger, Latino-Queer man greatly informs my work as an artist.  I am committed to exploring the social and political. Several themes are important to my work, including:
social hegemony, especially as it pertains to the effects of hegemony on the body, socially, emotionally and physically; how our ideas and thoughts are socially constructed; representations and constructions of  “value”; and magic and spirituality, especially transcendence, the view “outward” from the body and its social restrictions and into the spiritual realm.

For me, art has become about the ethereal; every stroke, every decision, even a splotch of color represents the artist’s­–or my–essence and energy made “real” on canvas.  My hope is to provide a window into these social worlds, to depict both what is more beautiful and what is uglier than we expect.
