SAM’OL SHIT – Inspired By: Jean-Michel Basquiat Exhibition

SAM'OL SHIT - Inspired By: Jean-Michel Basquiat Exhibition

SAM’OL SHIT: Mixed media print 30″x20″ on silver canvas – available for purchase.

SAM’OL SHIT was featured in the Inspired By: Jean-Michel Basquiat Exhibition at Wood & Green Black Art Haus in March 2021. My direction with this piece was to stay true to my composition style but also incorporate nods to Jean-Michel. This piece incorporates a quote from the documentary “Boom for Real: The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat” from his friend Jennifer. Jennifer used this line to describe the feeling of seeing Jean’s work in a gallery for the first time. This quote always struck me because Jean did disrupt the art scene and I found it fitting for this piece.

Hello, Friend.

My name is Tomicha and I'm a Cleveland native currently based in State College, PA. I'm a freelance designer and visual artist with 5+ Years of experience, and an Adobe Creator Camp Alumni. My work is versatile and dynamic and has been on display in several fine art exhibitions in Cleveland, Ohio.

The style of my work primarily consists of composites created digitally with Adobe Photoshop. Think collages - only a touch more intricate.

Feel free to explore my work here in this portfolio. There's so much to experience with static visual art and some audio and video experiences as well. I hope this body of work gives you a clear idea of who I am as a creative.

My commissions are currently open. Don't hesitate to drop a line in the contact form if you want to collaborate.

- Cheers
