Max? or Maxine?
Doesn’t matter. Same name, same amazing results.
(I might prefer Max tho.)
Enough slogans and cockiness. Here’s a fun little summary of who I am.
I’m in my 20’s, still very green but people have always told me I’m an old soul. Maybe that’s because of my chronic pain, maybe it’s because I spent a few hundred hours playing Fallout 4 listening to oldies.
I’ve spent a majority of my life creating. Whether it be graphics, drawings, flower arrangements, singing, insane halloween props, paintings, drawing fake tattoos on my 14 year old skin with a sharpie….you get the gist! Creating is what makes me feel alive.
I am a mosaic of everyone I've ever loved.
It sounds cheesy but it's true.
My mom and dad are both artists in their own way. My dad welds in a sort of artistic way, he’s pretty capable of drawing. My mom has an expansive list of different ways she creates.
My Tio has been a huge influence when it comes to my art. Him and his partner, Alicia, created ArtLab Candy while I was a teenager. It is what led me to pursue art as a career. He’s my artistic sounding board.
My 2-in-1 best friend and partner, Adam, is the reason this website exists. The reason I strive to find some sort of success within my creativity. He pushes me without trying, supports my pursuits, and is constantly encouraging me. He always has.
Eben, my dear friend that is no longer with us. In high school, with the help of my Tio, I created shirts with my design and sold them in local stores. Eben and our friends helped inspire this design. I continue to create for him.
