Portrait of J.Cole

My exploration of street art in all its forms lately has been accompanied by the voices of people who are now considered by many to speak volumes of experiences from the streets. I like stories, life stories, I see rappers as contemporary story tellers, they document their own experiences, views and in many ways reflect the changing world around them. This is a tribute to one of my favourite story tellers, J.Cole.

I find that my art enables me to express elements of my world that can't necessarily be seen by the naked eye, its an attempt at conveying something a bit intangible. Abstraction is the primary way I communicate my ideas and experiences in art.
The naive and somewhat primitive lines, shapes, colours and textures I use are my attempt at capturing the atmosphere, personality or feeling of a place or person I have encountered in my life, realism or a photograph in my opinion doesn't always capture these elements of the world.
I feel that my art brings these to the surface...it shows the soul of something, somewhere, or someone. Perhaps you will see someone you know within my strange works, maybe even yourself.
