During fashion week 2025, I happened to be near the doorway recording Angelica singing and he was staring at me for what felt like 2 minutes I thought "YO IS THAT MAYOR ADAMS GRILLING ME?!" So I decided to start the conversation with "I know you from somewhere" 🤣. I didn't expect this conversation at all. Purely organic. Thanks for your positivity @ericadamsfornyc

Angelica was singing tunes for the opening of @artmarish.nyc art show at Hudson Yards...so of course I had to come correct with a controversial fashion statement piece. taken in Hudson Yards New York by @customartbymax

The original photo was overexposed but I think I brought her some life with the airbrush. This sweater was $800. Airbrushing over black is very challenging (as you could see). I'm putting on for Queens. taken in Brickell by @customartbymax

I got to tell my art story on TV! I hope it inspired someone. I've been through too much in my life to not spread the hope that you can make it through anything and be great.

I was honored to create this custom airbrushed jacket for @palomija to wear to the Met Gala. It is a stylized portrait of André Leon Talley who was an American fashion journalist, stylist, creative director, author, and editor-at-large of Vogue magazine. The theme of the 2025 Met Gala is "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style". Thank you @bornflawed for making this happen. #fashion #metgala2025 by @customartbymax

Envision the life you want and walk, don't run towards it. I've done this organically with my whole spirit and people feel it when they interact with me. I feel like the mistake many people make is trying to skip steps and get to the finishline artificially. Remain teachable.
.
I'm happy with where I am, and excited for where I'm going. Thanks for my clients and followers that have supported me along the way. I couldn't be here without you. ♥️
