Smoove World by C. Paige

Ink, graphite, color pencil

Meet the artist: C. Paige

Inspiration:

Smoove World was inspired by my childhood memories. The movie Cool World was one of my favorite movies so being a black american/Trinidiadian man I decided to put my own spin to the concept by drawing myself in a world of all of my favorite black american cartoons.

What role does art play in your life?

To me, art is paramount. I place art in my life as significant as everything else in my life that deserves my attention, love, and care. My dad and my older brother's interest in art inspired me to create art at the age of 6 or 7 Now it's about my love for art, my wfire, and my children, and GOD inspires me to continue doing what I love.

Artist statement:

I make art my everything because everything is art.
