When it comes to anything, it’s always about who you know. And for 21-year-old Spencer McMullen, a Florida-born artist, his chance encounter with Tyler, The Creator back when he was 16 years of age has paid off as he embraces his very own Chuck 70 collaboration courtesy of Converse’s on-going Artist Series in partnership with the IGOR originator.
Sure, the meeting was luck, but as they say, the harder you work, the luckier you get. And Spencer has been grinding, refining his stylings ever since, which is evident in his illustrative effort seen here below. An amalgamation of different inspirations, each acts as a multi-layered vignette into not only the artist’s life but also that of those around him. The upper’s canvas arrives in clean whites, with seemingly disorganized placements of people, mugshots, barbers, and logo lettering — each arriving is aesthetically different etchings that highlight the young artist’s range.
