Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What distinguishes me as an artist is my refined taste, shaped by a rich heritage of print media that played a significant role in my upbringing. From my early encounters with my father’s Sports Illustrated and Time Magazine subscriptions, I developed an insatiable curiosity, flipping through their pages with eager fascination. As I matured, I curated my own collection of magazines and concert flyers, captivated by their visually stunning aesthetics and undeniable coolness. These experiences nurtured my deep admiration for remarkable graphic design, awe-inspiring illustrations, and the enchanting world of animation, shaping my artistic identity. One transformative influence was the iconic artwork of Nipsey Hussle’s Crenshaw project, with its striking red backdrop and monochromatic portrayal of Nipsey. This ignited my enduring love for the color red, which has since become a prominent element in my creative endeavors. Harnessing the commanding visibility of this hue, I am confident that my work will always make a lasting impact. It is through this unwavering belief in the power of color, coupled with my passion for graphic design and animation, that I continue to push boundaries and leave an indelible mark on the creative landscape.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I’d show them an array of dynamic activities that perfectly capture the city’s unique charm. We’d start by exploring the historic Market Square Park, surrounded by an eclectic mix of bars and restaurants (TASTE, Vic & Anthony’s, etc.). From there, we’d take a short stroll to the renowned Discovery Green, a picturesque urban park offering art installations, live performances, recreational activities, and beautiful green spaces for relaxation.

To satisfy our culinary cravings, we’d head to Bravery Chef Hall, a bustling food hall with a diverse selection of chef-driven cuisines. For a taste of authentic Texas barbecue, we’d venture to Brook Street BBQ, where the mouthwatering aromas of smoked meats fill the air. After indulging our taste buds, we’d embark on an architectural tour, marveling at the iconic skyscrapers that define the Houston skyline.

As the sun sets, we’d make our way to the Theatre District, where the Wortham Theater Center and the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts offer world-class performances. To top off the night with some entertainment and libations, we’d head to The Rustic, a lively spot featuring live music and a fantastic selection of craft beers.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to recognize and celebrate the exceptional talent of Michael “Keybeaux” Burton, an accomplished rapper and visionary in the realm of performance art and animation on Fiverr. Having grown up on the same street, I had the privilege of witnessing his unwavering confidence in his musical abilities, which went unnoticed in mainstream recognition. With a modest recording studio tucked away in his bedroom closet, he and my brother conjured pure magic. Through his tireless determination and unmatched work ethic, Michael has reached astounding heights, amassing over half a million dollars and garnering well-deserved acclaim, including an exclusive interview with MSNBC. He serves as a true testament to the power of unwavering passion, demonstrating that with resilience and relentless pursuit, one can achieve extraordinary feats and lead a purpose-driven life.

I want to give a special recognition to my friend and the visionary behind Prayers Loft, John Omewah. Our paths crossed in 2009 within the iconic Moody Towers during our time at the University of Houston. Since then, our friendship has grown stronger and endured for over a decade. John possesses an immense talent as a visual artist, and it was he who wholeheartedly encouraged me to embrace and showcase my own artistic creations. From the very moment he laid eyes on the initial mockups for SAINTTRENT EVAN t-shirts, he saw beyond the confines of just sharing them with friends and family. He recognized the potential for something greater—an opportunity for my designs to be discovered by the right people and to catalyze a life-altering transformation for me as a designer. John’s unwavering belief in my abilities has been a driving force in my artistic journey, igniting the flame of limitless possibilities and propelling me towards a future that surpasses my wildest dreams.
