Edgar Luna

Growing up Edgar believed that what he was doing was just drawing but now that he has settled into his own style, he has realized that almost everything is art, we are all artists, and each person is good at something. Edgar is an artist from Mexico that was inspired to create by the graffiti he saw growing up. His work has evolved from calligraffiti to tattooing and he urges other artists to never give up no matter how small or large the obstacle.
