Location LIC, Queens, New York, United States
Introduction I was born in Cali,Colombia raised in Miami, Florida. New York has been my home for the past 12 years, where I've been blessed with a beautiful wife and 2 gorgeous daughters. I have worked for acclaimed artist Jeff Koons as a color specialist and painter from 2000-2005. From 2006-to present my life has evolved from a full time painter/artist to a devoted father/provider. I must admit that this transformation has been the most challenging but yet the most gratifying experience. I realized quite early that it wasn't going to be possible for me to be an Artist and a devoted father at the same time, so I gave up my painting studio and chose the latter. For the past 3 years the digital camera has provided me with a very effective and instant way of viewing and expressing my ideas through an artistic point of view, not to mention all the thousands of pictures I have taken of my girls. I find that the camera is such a versatile tool for those that seek instant gratification, something that I was never able to accomplish with my paintings. Now I carry my studio with me at all times.
