Yo, you got to be true to yourself first and foremost. I can't tell you how many times we hear people in the world lend their fate to circumstances outside of themselves. We need to remember that our opinion matters as well, especially when it comes to factors pertaining to ourselves. We need to learn to appreciate our viewpoints a little more and be true to our own. - As always, this is- The Collective

What is an Artist? 

Well to me we are all artist yet there are a few of us that put that art toward a purpose. Coming out of the Streets of Los Angeles and the Venice Beach Boardwalk let me introduce a man who's story is not only inspiring, but is also a blueprint that illustrates how we as people have the power of creativity right inside us. All we have to do is believe in ourselves. 

Join me on the journey with my dude Zer as we embark on an epic journey throughout his accomplishments from the canvas to the basketball court. Designing life-size immersive murals that can be seen throughout the world.

Thanks again Zer for coming on The Collective and sharing your story. I truly appreciate your skill and effort and your willingness to listen to the Universe as it continues to bring out more and more of your creativity.
