THE MAGIC CIRCUS
As a kid, I hid in my bedroom and practiced magic tricks and entertained my four brothers. Also, I wanted to run away and join the circus, so my dad built a backyard trapeze for me. My first art work was a large publicity sign advertising my neighborhood magic shows and circus acts. Throughout my school years, I performed magic shows earning money to pay for my art school tuition. Today I still practice magic tricks, clown around and paint everyday in my studio. I have always believed, "you can't separate your life from what you passionately love to do. Magic tricks, circus and me. Who'da thought? Enjoy the show.
