Stephen began making art at a young age, inspired by watching Bob Ross and eager to start sketching. Always exploring new modalities and mediums, he continually seeks ways to expand his creative skills. For Stephen, art is not only a way to showcase his talent but also a source of comfort, particularly in relation to his mental health. He finds fulfillment in using his art to support individuals with disabilities, a process he finds both enriching and rewarding. His work is deeply connected to his Latinx culture, with these themes, motifs, and concepts woven throughout his diverse body of work. Drawing, painting, sewing, performance, digital art, and more all feature prominently in his creative expression—truly making him a jack of all trades!
