Tyrique Smith

My reasoning on love for the beauty of art creation is to show and express myself as a person to reflect and to express with others.

What is your favorite type of art to create?

My favorite type of art to create is cartoon, illustration, neo-traditional art and traditional art. My strong suit is illustration and my weakness is realism

Where do you find inspiration?

I find my inspiration of art from searching through facebook or instagram on how others can demonstrate their creativity and i use that to create my own art. Sometimes i also look at professional artists like Johnny Depp, irezumiartist and along with bioworkz. These artists inspire me to achieve my goals and to strengthen my weaknesses and by being inspire by them i try to create my own original style of art and image. Sometimes it comes out great but its all a learning experience for me.

What would you do with $25,000?

What I would do with $25,000 is to get into school to become a tattoo artist or become an intern at a tattoo shop. I would use it to buy more equipment to further my journey. If i don’t decide to do that i would try to get my art on clothing and try to start my own clothing design if possible.
