Alex is an Arlington, VA resident on the Autism Spectrum. He's had difficulty with how to properly read, write, and even talk. But it has not prevented his pursuit in Art. At first, it was just a pastime hobby but now it plays a more crucial part of his life. It is his most preferred form of communication and expression of who he is. From the beginning of his journey as an artist, he's visited multiple galleries and museums that held the history and techniques of famous artists that date back from prehistory to the present generation. He takes that inspiration and merges that with his own interests and experiences to drive his designs. That is how he would like to stand out.
