HOLA!
Let me tell you a little bit about me !
I’m Jose R. Santana Firpo, though my friends call me “XL” because I’m 6’6″. Born and raised in the Dominican Republic and based in the South End Boston. I’m a multidisciplinary artist, husband, dad, and graphic designer with a BA in Advertising (concentrating in Graphic Design). As a creative lover who enjoys thinking outside the box, I like watercolor sketching, drawing caricatures, and working in digital media.
I’ve collaborated on and be been part of several projects, such as:
I often draw myself as a balloon because back in school, my teachers would always tell me, “You always have your head in the clouds!” I was usually too busy sketching and doodling to pay attention in class.
I also proudly use both of my last names in my artist signature as a tribute to honor my father and mother.
Thanks for stopping by!
Feel free to reach out if you’d like to work together!
