Art is my long-lasting Love
Imagine little six-year-old me, chilling in Havana, surrounded by watercolor paints and feeling like I'm in my own little wonderland.
Art was my jam, and even though our home was pretty simple, folks always knew to gift me art supplies. Those were the days, pure magic!
The Architecture Adventures
Fast forward to my architecture days, where I practically lived in a world of blueprints and dreams. Late nights, lots of coffee, and hanging out with super talented folks helped me fall even more in love with design. Seriously, it was like being in a masterclass 24/7.
From Doubt to Discovery
Then came the big leap. I ditched the safety net of my job to follow my heart as an illustrator. With my broken English, barely enough cash to buy a sandwich, and dreams bigger than Big Ben, I took a chance. And guess what? NFTs swooped in and turned me from a struggling artist into someone who could actually pay the bills with my doodles. Crazy, right?
London made me
London, baby! The city of dreams. I set my sights on becoming a graphic designer, and after a lot of hustling, I made it happen. Joining an awesome design team was like scoring a golden ticket. It taught me that dreams are worth chasing, no matter how wild they seem.
So here I am now
Experimenting with styles, I tell tales through digital art, focusing on the female narrative to create a world rich in meaning. As an Artist in Residence for Adobe and the Meta Angel Project, I've joined impactful events like Web3 Mental Health by World of Woman x MTV and showcased my work at esteemed venues from NFT Liverpool to Art Basel Miami.
It's been a wild ride, and I'm grateful for every twist. Proud? You bet. But I'm not done yet. Bring on the next adventure! I'm ready for whatever comes my way. New challenges? Sign me up! With my never-give-up superpower, there's no limit to what I can achieve.
