Talent TuesdayZ… Jamaul Smith aka”iLL jAM aRT”, artist /designer /illustrator!!!

DBZ: So Jam!!! Where are you originally from, and where do you reside now days?

Jam!!!:•Born in a little town in New Mexico
Jam!!!:•Presently located in Prince George's County, MD 2 min from Washington DC.

DBZ: How did you become interested in your craft?

Jam!!!: •Third grade, there was an assignment to draw your rendition of the mayflower.  My friend Lewis at the time was already known in the class for his doodles and sketches.  I wanted to see if I could draw like him.  So not to one up him but, I went to the library and found one of those "How to draw...." books and checked the one out on boats and ships.  After a few hundred times of tracing every page, I begin to draw my rendition of the mayflower which resembled a pirate ship w/o the skull and crossbones.  The teacher was in awe and my classmates never looked at me the same, neither did Lewis.

DBZ: So Jam!!! what are some accomplishments you have made thus far, small or large?

Jam!!!: •Graduated from Syracuse University 05' BFA Illustration
Jam!!!: •I've been featured in a few magazines, live shows and editorial pieces here and there.  Done work for clothing lines in the DMV reaching as far as LA.

DBZ: So what are you working on now & what do you have in the pipeline?

Jam!!!: •The major push right now is a company named Focsi (Fox-see) which will be making major moves in the art world for many years to come.  I'm also working closely with Doebotz on designs for up coming years.  Really, 2011 and beyond will bid to be the break out era because the people want it, the people need it.

DBZ: What is your ultimate goal that you wish to reach?

Jam!!!: •The goal is to be the best version of myself by getting better and better with each day. I will soon be a household name as an artist/designer/illustrator and running empires, calling the shots, and spreading inspiration to all those who wish to be inspired.

DBZ: Hey Jam!!! feel free to add anything extra that you would like people to know.

Jam!!!: •One thing about life, not only pertaining to the arts is that its all about who you know.  You an be the most talented, most gifted, but if you don't have that marketing niche, it doesn't matter.  I've seen this countless upon countless of times.  Being in the DC Metro area where working in the government reigns supreme, i was once told "No one will hire you with an Illustration degree."  I didn't take offense because that is the mindset of this area, and I knew that moving back after college.  The opportunities are limited.  But I was determined to making it work.  This is the capital of the country, a great place to thrive and live abundantly.  I am going to make this a place for artist coming out of school and looking for a career that isn't associated with just government contracting.  There are a plethora of other possibilities out there, we'll just have to work together to make this happen.

Yesterday's food drive was a success and a great experience. There is an unexplainable feeling that you get when you do things for others. Personally this food drive made me even more appreciative for all of my blessings. I met so many wonderful and generous people while collecting the food. I just wanted to take this time to say thank you to the people who found the love in their hearts to take a few extra dollars and help someone less fortunate. A special thank you goes out to Cardinal Bakery (Sterling, Va) for their enormous contribution to this food drive. We look forward to teaming up with them again. Last but not least thanks goes out to Foodforothers.org for allowing "Doebotz" X "Corey Cares" to work in conjunction with their remarkable organization who helps individuals / families in need all year around! Here a few pictures from the food drive.

The enormous donation from Cardinal Bakery.
