My early influences came from the rich, colorful culture of the Southwest, particularly as expressed through masterpiece murals created around El Paso and Juarez. Most of my paintings are influenced by dreams, mixing my adulthood with the unconsciousness of childhood memories. The texts I write have no specific language; they are surreal, like people speaking in tongues to communicate with a higher being. Many painting methods and styles are influential in my paintings, such as Surrealism, Talavera, pinstriping, calligraphy, graffiti, and street art. I like to bring aspects of Meso-American mythology, which I love, and the gritty reality of modern life.
