I know I’m a day late but these past two days have been pretty emotional. Kobe Bryant was my favorite player in the entire world. He was involved in all of my earliest basketball memories. He was a superhero to me and I idolized everything about his game. The attitude, approach and dedication he showed was admirable beyond words. Getting older, u start to learn that loss is a part of life. Everyone experiences it and handles it a different way, and when losing two of my idols in such a short time (Kobe and Mac Miller), I was unbelievably sad and couldn’t understand why this would happen. After some time, instead of sitting around feeling sorry for myself, it was apparent to me that this isn’t what my idols would want. They’d want me to get off my ass and chase my dreams because life is short. We have to continue to spread love in this world while we’re here and make loving impressions on each soul we meet. I’m so thankful to have been alive to watch Kobe play and been blessed by Mac’s music. Until we meet again fellas, thank you for being HEROS in my life 🙏💸😢

Probably the most challenging assignment I’ve done in graphic design so far, but I finally feel like I’m getting a better understanding of Adobe Illustrator. The goal was to make a poster for a fake event using primarily isometric shapes. Inspired by the mixtape Flight School by Wiz Khalifa, I really enjoyed making this piece showing love to the Pittsburgh legend #412 🤙💸🐐 @ Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Personal favorite piece was made in 2015 of after scoring 23 points and leading Duke to another NCAA Championship🏆. This moment of Tyus celebrating will forever be remembered as a Duke fan 🏀🐐✈️ @ Indianapolis, Indiana
