AYE147's Statement

I’m a multi-talented, well known graffiti artist, instructor, and muralist from Los Angeles. I started my painting journey in 1982 in New York through my cousins and I continued to emerge as a legend in Los Angeles. Throughout my career I have instructed students and taught them the history of graffiti art. I have exhibited my paintings on canvases, walls, murals, art shows and clothing.

My work appeared in the movie "Training Day" and has been featured in the media while I was being interviewed about my art murals or during special reports on graffiti. My talent isn’t limited to only painting. I also work with metal. I restore classic cars and build them from the bottom up. I consider myself to be a perfectionist and take pride in my artwork and the cars I have restored. I am extremely professional and demonstrate integrity in my work.
