Made with love in Chicago.

Artist Statement

I never felt like I was part of this world. Being an immigrant and moving around made it hard to “fit in” anywhere. Everyone always asked me what planet I was living on? or why is your head always in the clouds? Truthfully, I hated the world I was living in, so I created my own Wonderland using my artistic skills. Escape with me to Wonderland.
