From 2021 to 2023, I immersed myself in a series of loose, black-and-white ink drawings—intuitive explorations shaped by coastal imagery, palm trees, and the quiet pull of the ocean. These subjects felt deeply personal, rooted in both my environment and my sense of home. It was during this period that I began to discover my own originality, allowing the ink to guide me rather than imposing direction upon it.

Those years were defined by curiosity and freedom. I created without expectation—exploring, experimenting, and simply enjoying the process. Some of these works found their way into commercial spaces, while others remained purely personal, but all of them were essential to my growth.

In 2023, I gathered this body of work into a hardcover book titled Coast Eternal. Shortly after its completion, I introduced the book during the opening of a modern furniture store in San Diego, Home Steez. The project stands as a meaningful milestone in my life—marking the moment I truly began to understand and define my artistic voice and style.
