Visual Art – Detroit

My name is Ijee Brown, born in Detroit Michigan. Growing up in Detroit i felt my life passing by me so i left Detroit to see if it will change my situation. After weeks go by i realized there was no place like home so I decided to come back to Detroit. I was down and depressed and spirit was low. i would play basketball to blow off steam but basketball wasn't always available in cold Detroit. so i decided to draw and i began to draw more than often. It felt good and right so I tried painting and it felt like I was one with the universe. And now I know who I am. I want to put my self out there in the world with the hopes that someone will be inspired by my art and story so that one day they will find out who they are as well.
