Artist: Marcus Addison | Location: Birmingham, AL
Birmingham, AL
Hello, my name is Marcus Addison and I’m a self taught artist. My alias is 6oldie the Artist. I previously lived in Montgomery, Alabama; I now reside in Birmingham, Alabama. I’ve been painting for about 4 years. Drawing art has been one of my many skills growing up. I would later pick up a paint brush attending my junior high school art class. As an adolescent, I grew up as an observant not voicing my opinion much, one because I didn’t know how to find the correct words to say while explaining myself. I found it impossible to express myself and art made it possible to do that. Art became a real thing to me once the paintings started to speak to my emotions as well as others! My art expresses no limitations or boundaries which allows me to take my own expression or vision wherever with no regard of boxes or opinions. Art showed me freedom when there was no freedom also peace when there was no peace…Sometimes there's no explanations; Sometime you just have to be free!!!!
