History
Siva's interest in art and music began at a young age. In the early 1990s, he taught himself to draw on lined and xerox copy paper with a #2 pencil at the kitchen table of his childhood home with his siblings. As he grew throughout elementary and middle school, he continued to draw for fun. Later, as a Sophomore in high school in the year 2002 CE, he was introduced to graffiti by an amazing artist he met in middle school that claimed the alias "Peoples". His interest in art only grew stronger. After high school he went down the wrong path making mistakes. He needed to do something with his life. After countless suggestions from his family and peers to go to college, now in his early twenties c. 2012, he decided to study art and make it a career and life path and went forth to make it a reality. Thirteen years later it is now 2025 CE. In the spring of 2025 he graduated from College of the Desert with an associate degree in Studio Art. A degree holding artist. The goal he set in 2012 is accomplished. His destiny is achieved. He permanantly etched his name in art history. But the story is not over. The story continues. Siva lives and will die as an artist. The child he remembers from the past is grateful he did.
