Throughout Brandi’s creative journey, she admits that inspiration and motivation have always come quite easily to her, particularly this past year. With the weight of a global pandemic on all of our shoulders, Brandi has accomplished one of the biggest feats. Keeping inner peace. Staying present.

A lot of artists start in one art form and end up in another. Though in today's world switching between art forms can be scary. You might be worried that if you switch up what you are doing as an artist that you might lose followers or sales. But...isn't that the whole point of being an artist? That you aren't put in a box? Aren't artists artists because they aren't afraid to express themselves in all ways in front of an unforgiving world? That is what I admire in this November's featured artist Nicholas.

I was always into drawing, design, and graphic design. You can see that in some of my first posts on instagram. If you exclude vision boards from elementary school. I didn't start collaging until about five years ago. I was doing an assignment in college for my Visual Journalism degree where we had to shoot a documentary. My ex-girlfriend's friend's mom was dating Cheyenne Randall (@indiangiver) and I loved his work. I was fortunate enough to get to shoot a documentary on him and follow him around for a few days. He had a bunch of work from Jay riggio (jayriggio) in his house. Cheyenne really immersed me in the art world and introduced me to collaging and I’m really grateful for that. It's funny, in college I worked for the school magazine and helped design and put out a few issues and now I'm cutting up magazines.
