Often I'm asked what inspires me to create such colorful and eclectic paintings. Living in the Bay Area for most of my life as well as having lived in the Philippines during my childhood, has afforded me an unlimited stream of seemingly ordinary subjects from which I can bring to life on canvas.

Most of my work explores the diverse culture, objects, neighborhoods and landscapes that I see around me on a daily basis. My paintings fuse these images together along with a bold palate and unique perspective to convey the strength and intensity of my subjects.
