About Ox Tamer

Meet the Artist

I am a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker dedicated to creating the Ox Tamer universe. My work blends painting, film, and storytelling, exploring themes of discipline, identity, and transformation.

MY PERSONAL MYTHOLOGY

Tell me a story

Ox Tamer is the name I gave to the part of me that refuses to live small. By night, I’ve served in Italian restaurants, watching others celebrate their lives. By day, I’ve been quietly building another reality—teaching myself filmmaking, painting, and design while sketching a bigger myth for my life. The Ox comes from the Ten Ox-Herding Pictures in Zen: the Ox is your karmic nature, wild and powerful; the herder is your higher self, trying to find it, lose it , chase it, and finally walk with it. For me, Ox Tamer is that whole journey turned into an art practice. My work is about that tension: between who you are now and who you’re called to become. Between the job that pays your bills and the craft that pulls your soul forward. Between fear and discipline. Every painting, every frame, every project is a conversation with that Ox.

Ox Tamer unfolding

This isn’t just a career plan. It’s a myth laid over real years of work.
