ABOUT

My story is quite long, but I will share just enough!

My name is Daguilard Delva, but you can call me Dags. My roots are in Haiti, and since moving to the USA, I have embraced a life full of adventure. I have lived in Ellicott City, Maryland; Denver, Colorado; and Brooklyn, New York. I currently reside in Washington, D.C., and each location has uniquely shaped my experiences.

My passion for painting ignited out of necessity. I often found it difficult to find affordable decor that truly reflected my style. Instead of giving up, I took on the challenge myself. I gathered some art supplies—canvases, paint, and brushes—and decided to create my own artwork. I let my imagination run wild, accompanied by great music and a little wine. Et voilà, that’s it—Dags’it!
