Random

It’s been a minute since the last time I posted in my blog, but now that I have a moment, I wanted to tap in with a few random thoughts. First off, my website is finally starting to look and feel the way I want it to. And considering the fact that I started this process from scratch just nine months ago is especially rewarding. I didn’t know shit about creating a website and there wasn’t nobody coming to save me. I’m sure that anyone who has ever had to create a website on their own can relate when I say, it ain’t easy. Thankfully, I’ve been working with a great team of creative designers from ‘GoDaddy’ to get here. However, this process isn’t always smooth, though. Delays, setbacks, and other challenges are part of the journey, but I made it happen.

I’m also pleased to share some of the photos from my latest brand shoot here on the site. I would like to give a big shout out and thank you to Bryson, Drea, and my entire squad for the amazing work they did at the event. The pictures are dope and were necessary to give my website the look that I wanted, and to promote the women’s clothing line. We also collaborated on some really cool reels on Instagram, too. It’s crazy to think that I’ve already had four brand shoots since January of this year. With each brand shoot, I get a little more relaxed, and I’m getting a lot more comfortable taking the lead at these events. In fact, I’m already planning my next pop out. My goal is to build a team of photographers, videographers, and brand ambassadors who I can work with regularly to create the best visual content possible. Teamwork definitely makes the dream work.

And finally, shout out to my friend, fellow artist and creator, Mark Niko, who has created some really cool anime images with the help of a paid subscription to Freepik.com. Freepik.com literally allows you to create thousands of AI generated images based on your word search. Mark digitally edits these images by adding the FYA Brand tag and then I share them on my IG page. As you may or may not know, I’m a huge fan of anime, manga, and animation in general. I plan on making some of these image’s stickers to pass out as souvenirs to customers, or to pass them out at dispensaries and smoke shops to help promote the brand. The stickers will also include my IG’s URL code, too. Well, that’s all I have for now, but be sure to stay tuned and thanks for tappin’ in.
