this painter and illustrator creates magic in an array of graphic styles

Painter and visual artist BadassGenius is, well, kind of a badass genius! A student of technique with a vast array of stylistic interests, Badass Genius (what a name) oscillates between realism-style portraits to character study sketches, illustrations, and cartoons with a swipe of an Instagram post. But I’m especially feeling his digital work, like his portrait of artist Tyler, The Creator and how he plays with dimensionality in other portraits. Very interested to see how this rising artist’s work will grow next.
