Recently I got the opportunity to paint some kicks for the show runner of @thecwriverdale . First time painting converse! #archieandrews #bettycooper #veronicalodge #handpainted #customshoes
Newest pair of commissioned sneaks. MLK and a protest fist. A call for justice and call to love. #customshoes #martinlutherking #stickwithlove #injustice #blm #custommade
I painted a sub for my house! (At a rally in MS, 1966, Stokely Carmichael told the crowd to stop begging for ‘freedom’ and get empowered! ‘Black Power,’ The title of a 1954 Richard Wright novel, became a rallying cry that day.
I love being commissioned by other artists. The ante gets upped off the bat. The base inspiration I get is always hella interesting and personal. This apple box was commissioned by my Homie, TV director @petechatmon . Inspo was “storytelling.” From the history of the written word, through advances in technology, I incorporated quotes from some of Pete’s favorite directors. Alfred Hitchcock, Spielberg, Spike Lee, etc. Enjoy, my brotha!
