Art makes better humans, art is necessary in understanding the world and art makes people happy. Undeniably, art is not optional. - Nathan Sawaya

I carry a sketch pad with me wherever I go. Many of my works center on the phenomena of how everyday life, people and raw emotion are intertwined. I am inspired by my own experiences, the journeys I take and the people I meet.

Swim against the current!
Follow your own path!
Find the courage within!

My favorite subject is the human form. A lot of my work suggests a figure in transition. It represents the metamorphosis I am experiencing in my own life. My pieces grown out of my fears and accomplishments, as a lawyer and as an artist, as a boy and as a man.
