P L A N T I N G S E E D S - “I’m not saying I’m gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world.” — Tupac Shakur These words shaped how I parent, create, and mentor. Through public art, I hope to spark curiosity, nurture developing talent, and plant seeds that will BLOOM into something greater. Growth isn’t a competition. We each have our own season. When we nurture one another, Together WE FLOURISH. Career Day Presentation @renaissancehslb 🎞️ : @foryourbrand.la 🎥 : @cezshots @mattartvisuals

M O R E T H A N A M U R A L pt V The Community They’ll always be able to drive by and say, “We did that.” More than a mural, a mark on their community that’ll outlast the school year, the semester, maybe even them. 🎥 @cezshots 🎞️ @inspiredlbc

M O R E T H A N A M U R A L pt IV The Challenge You don’t have to be fearless to keep going. Courage isn’t the absence of doubt, it’s choosing to move forward anyway. Sometimes you just need to remember: YOU didn’t get here by accident. 🎥 @cezshots 🎞️ @inspiredlbc

M O R E T H A N A M U R A L pt II The Inspiration When I was approached to paint this mural, I was asked to do more than paint, I was asked to guide the seniors through the entire creative process as they created their farewell to the school. As they reflected on four years of memories, one theme kept surfacing: Be present. Slow down. Enjoy the moment. A simple reminder for a generation stepping into what comes next and for all of us. HALCYON More to come. Stay Tuned 🎥 @cez.shots 🎞️ @inspiredlbc

A new mural is on its way to Downtown Santa Ana's Historic District in celebration of two city institutions. The art piece is a collaboration between the Orange County School of Art and dance nonprofit Relámpago del Cielo. The organizations are both celebrating anniversaries this year. CBS LA spoke to the team of artists behind the mural, including recent alumni from the school of art who were hand-chosen to bring this piece to life. The mural is expected to be completed in mid-September. It's located on Fourth Street above the "Wursthaus" restaurant.

M O R E T H A N A M U R A L pt I The Project Sometimes the most meaningful projects aren’t just about the finished piece, they’re about the people you create them with. Halcyon was created as a reminder to slow down, appreciate the moment, and remember to smell the flowers. A message from @weareocsa class of 26 to their school and the community of Santa Ana. More than a mural. 🎥 @cezshots 🎞️ @inspiredlbc

H A L C Y O N a state of peace, harmony, and possibility. 115 ft x 18 ft Painted alongside 30–40 graduating seniors, this mural is more than a work of art, it is a parting gift. A final gesture from one generation to the next. A love letter to the community and school that nurtured them. Together, we filled this wall with color, movement, and stories of growth. Butterflies drift forward, flowers bloom, and figures dance between memory and possibility. It also serves as a gentle reminder to slow down, to stop and smell the flowers, to be present, and to find beauty in the moment before it passes. In a world that moves so quickly, this is an invitation to pause and appreciate where we are before rushing toward what’s next. 📸 : @cezshots , thank you for capturing all the magic To everyone who came out to lend me a hand, THANK YOU! I wouldn’t had finished it without you. @androoby @artchemist.studio @davidledger.art @reggiebeans.art @axlavenue @calling_journey @jlopez94art Special thanks to: Teren Shaffer, Dr. Greg Edelman, Dr. Maria Lazarova, Marlene Peña-Marin, Patrick Williams, and Paige Oden for entrusting me with this project.
