    Colombia vs. Panama
    Growing up Colombian my family and I were dedicated to watching the Colombian soccer teams play. Luis Diaz, A.K.A Lucho, became an important symbol for the Colombian people. This project pays homage to him and his hard work. Prismacolor colored pencils on Canson paper.
    Tears and Treats
    This project was one of my first times working with watercolor, and proved challenging yet exciting. It is a watercolor study of childhood longing and innocent loss, of small heartbreaks that feel enormous when we're young. It took a while to get the hang of it, but in the end it inspired my love for one of my favorite mediums to this day.
