We chatted with Saoul about his inspirations, art, and future plans. Read on to see what Saoul had to say!

1) Who are what has inspired you?

I’m inspired by family, art/culture and spirituality. For me, they are at the core of all that I do in life.

2) The evolution of your art?

Art in its’ basic meaning is a skill resulting from knowledge and practice. My evolution therefore includes keeping an “open-mind” with an ever-learning approach to my various crafts. Whenever given the opportunity, I’m constantly exploring new ways to “create” while honing my previous acquired abilities. Trial and error play a huge role in my artistic evolution.

3) Where do you see yourself in the future?

Happy, healthy and prosperous in every since of the word. I see my work impacting the world around me in a meaningful way.
