I am a Fine Artist & Designer with the love of working with multiple mediums .
Multiple Mediums including: Painting , graphics , costuming , photography, & music. All of it is apart of my journey of exploring & expressing my self as I connect with the world around me .
Born in Knoxville Tennesee and raised in Kyoto Japan as well as traveling the east coast of the U.S. , I have been creating Art consistantly since I was 3 yrs old. It has been a constant love that has never wavered thoughout my life.
My career in Fashion began as an Assitant stylist in South Beach Miami working on music videos for MTV, Commercials, & Celebrirty Clientel . I was also there Studying Various mediums of Fine Art & Photography at Barry University in Miami.I later I headed to New York City to study Fashion & Fine Art at Parson's School of Design with the intention of creating my own Couture Fashion House.
The House of Chateau De Lion is inspired by The Art of Performance & the Music / Street Culture of our times....it is the pulse of life I feel in the air . I harness that energy & put it in to the visual & physical representations of that energy in the form of Art, Fashion & Music . My work is a refelction of the times we live in.
As I designed clothing & created fine Art , I also continued to work as a stylist in NYC working on various collaborative projects including the John Legend Revolver Tour of 2008 & Fashion Editing at Permission Magazine .
Whether I am painting, or making clothing the love & attention for every thing I do is always the same! I love watching it all come together over time , working with many amazing people along the way !
