I created this coloring book to celebrate the Bay Area culture I grew up in—because representation matters! I wanted to showcase a predominantly Black and POC experience in a creative, engaging way. This project also gave me the opportunity to highlight another artistic skill beyond painting.
Hella Artsy Vol. 1 features Bay Area musicians like ALLBLACK, Guapdad 4000, Kevin Allen (formerly Erk Tha Jerk), Mistah F.A.B., and more! A special shoutout and thank you to Mistah F.A.B. for allowing me to use the Dope Era space for the Volume 1 release party in November 2018.
You can find the book online (at this site) or, if you're local to the Bay, grab a copy at Bay-Made on Lakeshore Ave.
