St.BEAR

  • Me being a young Black man from the Bay Area, I wanted to create a piece that carried amazing symbolism for young Black men of the Bay Area. first I really got inspired from the California state flag. I felt like the bear on the California flag would be perfect for the main subject. Then I decided I wanted the bear to wear popular streetwear clothing that resembled the clothes that me & other Black man like to wear in the Bay Area, but a I also wanted a way to incorperate the red & green colors of the CA flag. Finally I gave the bear an Oakland A´s hat because of how much I saw the hat being worn from the people around me. overall I believe this Art piece is an accurate symbol for the young Black men of the Bay Area.

  • To me creativity means to have the power and the ability to create anything your heart desires, by using only your two hands and intuition. I believe creativity is used to take multiple regular things from everyday life and combine them together to make something new to the human mind.
