Olaya

I’m the son of a classic canvas artist, so I’ve been around art my whole life. I didn’t fully dive into it until I turned 25, when I felt this strong urge to create. I started drawing and coloring on paper, then moved to canvas, and eventually began showing my work at pop-up tents in Wynwood and Little Havana around 2018–2019. That turned into painting murals with my own pattern style, which led me to logos, lettering, and all kinds of custom installations. I’ve now been a full-time muralist for five years and an artist for ten. I’ve painted in South America, Europe, and all over the U.S., and I’ve completed over 350 projects. Over the past couple years, I’ve been focused on leveling up my realism and building my brand. I like doing everything in-house—cutting stencils, using lasers, printing, whatever it takes. I even have my own boom truck so I can handle big installs myself. I take pride in being hands-on with every part of the process. Whether it’s a mural, branding, or a full installation, I’m always ready for the next challenge and looking to grow as an artist.
