Paul (FIFTY/FFTY) Johnson II
Detroit, MI
"Paul Johnson, also known as FIFTY or FFTY, is a self-taught multidisciplinary artist based in Detroit whose techniques range from photography, murals, prints, and tattoos. Holding on to the idea of never growing up, he tries to convey happy and fun expressions: His work tends to deal with cartoon-based illustrations and the abstraction of colors and shapes playing together. He's a big fan of simple and cute qualities of kawaii and anime drawing aspects."
