“Whether it is with my paintbrush or my camera, I guide the narrative while allowing the creative force of the work to guide me. When it comes to my illustrations or paintings, I work with many mediums, watercolor, oil, acrylics and pastels on canvas or paper. Nature, literature and my Afro Latinx culture fuel my inspiration. I love giving a classic subject new life on canvas. Photography enables me to reveal diverse New York City perspectives. Which intertwines with filmmaking. With my documentaries I reflect history/society to reveal culture and history from a new perspective.”-ErmeArt
Reaching for the stars from New York City to the world. ErmeArt Brings joy and consciousness with every film frame and brush stroke.
