Description: D.O.A (Dead or Alive) was created through a spark of creativity and energy. After J. Cole dropped “Might Delete Later” I was inspired to go create myself. Idk, when I heard everything I kinda felt like crashing out as a creative and this what came from that energy. 

A design that reflects my resilience and ability to always comeback from being down or just overcome any obstacle in general.  My quote at the bottom of the design is me speaking directly to that feeling of victory and overcoming the losses.

I also thought of how if I had the chance to design my skull myself and it happened to be seen through an XRAY, would that look like and how can I make that personal to me?  That’s where my signatures come into play such as the asterisk in the left eye socket, the “1/1” are placed on the right eye socket. along with  my “Angel A” being placed in the middle of my forehead.

(Collector’s note: early originals often gain value as the artist’s body of work grows.)
