## The Story Behind

My artworks are the vehicle I use to represent God and the abundance that surrounds me. That is why I try to portray nature as if it were a gem.

## Ancestral Techniques

I create my digital works by combining ancestral techniques, such as clay modeling, with current technology, such as 3D modeling. I want to be true to the time I live in without forgetting my roots.
