I’m a graphic designer and self-taught artist based in Brooklyn, New York, with a solid experience in drawing. I’ve been working with pencil and charcoal for over 24 years — they’ve really become my go-to mediums. My creative journey started when I was six, after someone gave me a drawing of Mewtwo, the Pokémon character. That moment sparked something in me, and I began drawing right away. Over time, my curiosity grew, and I started exploring new techniques and art mediums. Eventually I found my way into portrait drawing by my early teens.
