Not until after completing his Senior thesis in 2012 on Propaganda and pop culture artists of the 1940’s, during which he reconnected with his passion for art through his studies of street artist Shepard fairy, which led him in choosing to make it his career.

  Coming from a background of collaborative creative work with architect and interior design firms in the AEC industry as well as studio art with a “whatever it takes” attitude to make the impossible happen. kno1famous’s work consists of a diverse range of artistic expression.

  The intention behind kno1famous’s artwork is to inspire people to enjoy their daily life more by beautifying the spaces we occupy, one wall at a time. Kno1famous aims to achieve this goal by working with local community outreach programs and city arts councils that will provide opportunities for the people to get involved in their communities and to support the causes that matter to them the most.
