I Love Hip Hop Show w/ Phife D from Tribe Called Quest - Live Art!!!

This amazing night started out with a blank canvas painted black with intentions to paint the girl from the cover of Tribe Called Quest's album "Low End Theory" which is definitely in my top 5 of Hip Hop classics that you MUST own if you are into Hip Hop.





It was a packed house!














Phife Dawg (Tribe Called Quest) was performing at 4th & B, and I was doing live art as well as displaying many of my pieces, that several new fans made them a part of their homes (Thank You!). As the night progressed I had the chance to meet Phife and briefly talk with him as well as him signing my painting further honoring the piece.






















This was definitely the highlight of early Feb!
