Born in Lima, Perú, I was an introverted child in what seemed a very loud and busy country. I found refuge in drawing, painting, and creating stories. I spent countless hours in solitude doing something creative.
In my studio, I bounce between painting, drawing, and digital illustration. I consider myself somewhat of an impatient artist. Having access to different methodologies keeps my work fresh and relevant, and challenges my mind.
For a very long time, I was a figurative oil painter. In September of 2025, I challenged myself to create one painting a day for a local art event. I created 20 paintings in 20 days. These were small, contemporary still lifes in acrylic. This exercise heightened my observational skills tremendously, pushed me to work quickly, and brought back a sense of joy for painting.
My current work explores the historic genre of still lifes from a contemporary, and female perspective.
From time to time I mix things up and lend my expertise as illustrator to projects ranging from editorial to packaging design. A few of the clients I've worked with include Edible Magazine, Frito Lay, X-Games, Mouthful Eatery, and Covet Dance.
I enjoy to travel. From road trips across the US and recent international travel to Vietnam and Chiapas, Mexico. I draw ideas from culture, history and the natural landscape.
I got my Master’s from Cal State University and now I split my time between teaching art to college students and creating in my studio. .
I live with my family in Ventura, CA.
