Brown - The A’s to Our Q’s:


Wooster: How did you get started
in creating art for the street?
   
Brown: at a
young age, my brothers were into graff, they took me with them once and got me
hooked. from then on i explored and experimented with different shit.  something
about wheat paste just got me going. the way certain images just make you feel
so damn good. it just felt so right.

Wooster: What
other street artists do you most admire and why?

/>Brown: SEAK for his
great skill and incredible use of color in graff, and NAOMI, href="http://www.kinseyvisual.com/">KINSEY, AND href="http://www.obeygiant.com">SHEPARD for their very inspiring work wheat
pasting.

Wooster: What’s your favorite city,
neighborhood, or block, to post and/or to see street art?

/>Brown: FRISCO to observe great art, and Roosevelt street in
Phoenix to create it.

Wooster: What inspires you
now?

Brown: knowing that there’s others out there
like myself is inspiring. knowing that there’s people who appreciate my work and
the work of countless others, and are open-minded enough to consider what i do a
form of art is inspiring as fuck. i love seeing other people’s work up,
especially when it shows that they take pride in what they do and give it 110%.
other art forms also encourage me to try harder. i love graffitti, photography,
interior design, graphic design, tattoo, cinematography, bikes and skateboards,
music. it’s all art, and all very, very inspiring

Wooster:
What are you currently working on?  Can you give us a sneak peek?
/>
Brown: i have been trying to keep it simple, with only
a few different images, but i would definately like to make the ones i have alot
larger in size and hit up alot more spots on my list. I want to be all-city.
Nothing really to brag about yet.
