SUBJECT MATTER:

CONNECT is an illustration that is all about having fun with my friends during my spare free time. It takes inspiration from memories of hanging out with my friends in Raleigh and Durham, and the composition itself was inspired by visual artist Koketit and musician Fivio Foreign. Spending time with my friends used to be one of my more prioritized hobbies, but it has not been as important as it used to be because of the goals I am trying to achieve. My top priorities right now are my business and finishing my college education. I still do appreciate the friends that still reach out to me from time to time to check and see how I am doing on a regular basis. I like to hang around and talk with my friends occasionally, but only when I have myself figured out first. I like to stay focused on what I must improve about myself as well as what I need to focus on to reach my full potential as both a person and as an artist. I like to ride out with a few of my friends and family in order further learn more about the different environments of North Carolina. I have always thought that being stuck in your own head will not get you as far as being able to connect with other people. Being able to understand people is a great way to learn not only about the world around you but also about yourself as well as how to further grow and develop as a human being as well.
