Hello my name is Blake I was born in 1980 in Hawaiian Gardens California but I was raised in Morongo basin area of California. I believe the slow paced small town desert lifestyle drew me to creating, even at an early age where my interests were model cars and drawing. I moved to the west valley in Arizona in late 2016 to be closer to family, and I got back into drawing and painting around 2018 where I tried to practice daily and when I could. I have always worked full time jobs as well ranging from auto tech, building maintenance, and sales so art has always been part time. I would love to make art full time and intend to in the future. My style and inspirations vary because I have too many to list.
