Carlos Santiago, a visual artist, honed his craft through community college courses and a pivotal apprenticeship with Francesca Enriquez. He creates abstract, contemporary works in mixed media, marked by dynamic lines, layered textures, and a playful yet powerful energy—sometimes described as “crazy chicken scratches.” His “Loopy Loops” series invites introspection and meditative focus, drawing viewers into an active, transformative visual journey. Santiago’s art radiates a deep sense of balance, vulnerability, and the urgency of self-preservation, offering a vibrant emotional resonance.
