This whole starving artist thing started officially…
when I wanted to update my MySpace profile page.
Yes, I’m that many years old.
I was already spending a lot of time on there, doing things that most people do when bored; searching out profiles, hoping to find things and people to combat my boredom. I also started to write quite a bit as well but that’s a looong story for another time.
Anyway, most of the designs I saw were stale, dated or in my cheap case, too expensive… so I decided to make my own and I’ve been creating ever since.
Hopefully, I can create for you as well.
A Little About The Kid.
Born and raised on the South Side of Chicago, I learned quickly how to maneuver around people, places and particulars. I am a graduate of the renowned Whitney Young High School and the revered Fisk University where I studied business, chivalry, character and quality time.
I love the Big Dude Upstairs (like Frank K in Sister Act 2 - I’m down with G.O.D.), my family, friends and my AK. I’m also a huge fan of sports (my teams are all Chicago: DaBears, Bulls and Go Cubs Go). I also live and breathe music (I’m kinda nice on the turntable), books, fancy food, fashion, the occasional game (board, video or card), art (especially design), and photography.
Other key facts include the following:
I believe that most good music died circa 1998 — I blame the rise of New Orleans rap.
I also think that Crystal Waters and Deborah Cox are the same person - so are Mekhi Phifer and Omar Epps.
I believe that Michael Jordan is the best basketball player ever.
My mother once convinced me to wear Pro Wings because if I ran fast enough, they would make me fly.
I don’t create for a profit or recognition.
I do it for the love of beautiful things.
