From my personal experience creating brands and images that communities resonate with and can get behind are my favorite types of art. It feels good to be supported and seen by your peers and colleagues.
Where do you find inspiration?I have lived in Northern California for 13 years now and I find great inspiration from my eclectic community of forward thinkers and people of action.
What would you do with $25,000?If I were voted The People’s Artist, I would want to use the prize winnings to launch my design studio, Family of Treez. This will be an independent label focusing on marketing and branding for creators, celebrities, and other independent artists. I plan to create a first collection for Family of Treez to celebrate the opening of my dream studio.
