I am a self-taught painter. I work as a full time artist from my studio in Charlotte, North Carolina. My official website is cgmodernart.com.

Since my childhood, I have been fascinated by art and the beauty surrounding me. From an early age, I was curious to explore art and was encouraged by my mother, a skilled painter herself. Paintings of all styles — especially from abstract expressionist artists, have been very inspirational.

Desire and years of practice and persistence led to my contemporary style. I mostly create paintings on canvas, and occasionally, I create digital artwork for some of my publishers. Influenced by Latin culture, I love to incorporate vivid and warm colors. By combining oil and acrylic paints with pastels, gels and other mediums, I focus on creating simplicity and harmony.

Most of my artworks possess intense 3-D texture to provide an unique perspective for each spectator. Extra large paintings are impressive and perfect to create a bold statement. My gallery wrapped canvases can be hung on their own or framed to beautify any space.

Through my art, I am driven to transmit optimism and happiness in the mind of the viewer. I have sold over 700 paintings to private collectors and corporations around the world and created hundreds of pieces of art, including digital and collages, to exclusively partners and publishers. These are some of the places where my artwork has been sold, seen, displayed and/or featured in:

- Retailers: West Elm, Ethan Allen, Target, Overstock, Rooms to Go, Wayfair, Michaels, Lillian August Furnishing and Design, among other stores.
- NBC TV Show “Reverie”.
- NC Museum of Art, The Brooklyn Museum and Art Galleries.
- Private and non-profit businesses.
- Hotels and Restaurants.
- Real Estate companies for staging and Interior Designers.
- Book Covers, Magazines and Online Games.
- Juried Art Exhibitions, Solo Art Exhibitions and Charity Fundraising Art Auctions.
- Las Vegas Market, High Point Market, Americasmart (Atlanta Market), New York Design Center and other markets.
- And to many private collectors in Europe, Asia, Africa, North and South America and Australia.

I’m deeply grateful for all the people who have trusted me to bring happiness to their lives through my art. Thank you from the bottom of my heART!
