Art

Art has interested me since I was a child, I love to paint, draw, sculpt, and create anything I can get my hands on. I have worked on a variety of mediums, including walls (murals), canvases, paper, cardboard, clothes, metal,  and clay. Some of my artwork has been in exhibits since Highschool. I love to create, and I love to bring my creative side to any team I join.
