The rebirth & imagination of emerging artist Sean Christopher
Born and raised in the vibrant streets of Detroit, Michigan, I discovered my deep-rooted passion for the arts from a young age, inspired by my artistic family members. My older brother, a talented comic book artist, and my mother, who pursued commercial arts at the renowned Cass Technical High School, ignited my fascination with creative expression.
Following in their footsteps, I attended the Detroit High School for the Arts, where my artistic talents flourished. This path led me to further hone my skills at the College for Creative Studies during my college years. However, my journey was not without its challenges. Family issues and financial hardships temporarily diverted me from drawing and painting, leading to a period of introspection and mild depression.
Despite a 24-year hiatus from my artistic pursuits, the unprecedented events of a global pandemic sparked a profound spiritual awakening within me. Supported by the unwavering belief of loved ones in my artistic purpose, I rediscovered my creative voice and embarked on a transformative journey of self-expression and renewal. Currently, I am back in college finishing my art degree to become a professor in Philadelphia. However, I draw inspiration from my experiences and newfound clarity to create art that reflects the depth of my personal journey and resonates with others on a profound level.
