Brandon Malone: DJ’s Sampling & MC’s Rambling

As a fine artist and fan of the graphic novel, Malone has spent most of his life focusing on portraits, action, and emotions using sculpture, life drawing, and pen and ink. He focused his design education on illustration and honed a new appreciation for composition and light as he ventures into photography. This exhibit illuminates his keen eye and timing through street portraiture, musicians, and skateboarders.
