Pen Ya is my personal project and greatest endeavor of momentum and growth. It is the portrayal of the Houston art scene and its development. I will represent Houston via one-to-one interviews with 55+ artists, a portrait session, and explorative photographic statement and post it on my blog.

Donate direct via Fractured Atlas: Pen Ya

My purpose is three-fold: to create and promote growth among artists, cultivate out-of-the-box thinking, and simply ‘be’ in experience with others, as well as, strengthen the local art community through awareness of one another and expand local awareness of artists- locally and nationally. The end result will be published to a four-color process book called Pen Ya: Artiste Imaginarium–Houston Edition. A percentage of earned revenue (book sales) will be donated to MECA (Multicultural Education and Counseling through the Arts) to help underprivileged children learn through the arts.
