The REAL ... HIP HOP!

Blubydesign:: 

"Tell me, when was the first time you fell in love with Hip Hop?

Hip Hop is a culture originating w/ the DJ, an MC, the dancing and the art of call and repeat.

 It is poetry, politics, fashion, imagery, vibrations made into the physical.

When emotions and energy is manifested into a way of life and shared w/ the masses equates to creations. Hip Hop = Culture, Lifestyle, Voice of a people and a way of life-

I've fallen in love with Hip Hop

Have you??

"There is power in knowing what you want and what you will lose if you don't fulfill that need!"

The Atlas of Popephoenix::

I was introduced to the works of this artist during another inivative promotion through Grae Entertainment for an event that highlighted talented artist, musicians, and community health and well being.  Of course I'm a sucker for things that catch my eye, ear or attention and the works of Popephoenix was a headlner for all of the above.  

The colors were like candied pop rocks, very crisp with a vibrant introduction. Choice of subjects he reflects in his works are reflective of our Pop culture icons of today. I could go on but who better then the words of the Bronx Man himself...

The Introduction of... Who is Popephoenix?

Popephoenix is the moniker of William Pope. After learning my name is synonymous with art & design and many other illustrators have the same name. I came to the decision; in order to stand out in a crowd of artistic men named William Pope I had to assume a pen name. Popephoenix was born… or resurrected. Which ever is cooler in your head.

Where did you go to school?

Popephoenix is a graduate of the University of Barnes & Noble, where I taught myself illustration, web design and graphic design. Graduating Valedictorian of my class, I have worked hard to prove my talent to employers who only respect a diploma.

What is the benefit of being Self-taught?

I have  always felt my education was a hindrance but in reality it’s my greatest asset. It has allowed me to find new avenues to achieve outstanding results with every project I’ve worked on, while other designers/artists rely only one what they were taught.

Where has Popephoenix worked?

The determination to be an artist has allowed me to work within many fields: magazines, fashion, non-profit, animation, as well as web design. My latest endeavor in fashion has placed my designs on the shelves of Old Navy, Target, Walmart as well as other retailers across the country.

What is his focus?

With a children’s book, an art book, T-shirt line and a show planned for this year, I’m clearly focused on illustration and graphic t-shirt design.
