Astro The Artist
My name is Alex Johnson, I’m a self taught street artist from Wheaton, Maryland. Being from such a diverse area one of my biggest influences on my art is all the different cultures around me. I love how prideful people are of where they're from, whether that be their family heritage or just the city they’re from. I believe all the differences in people and everyone's uniqueness is one of the most beautiful parts of this world. I've done murals for multiple recording studios, black owned businesses, and other types of establishments. Street art means the most to me because it's so community based and builds a sense of togetherness. Being able to leave that surprising wow moment in people as they unexpectedly come across my work as they walk through the city during their regular daily life and sparking a sense of emotion, inspiration, and wonder is the reason I do my art. As I grow as an artist I’m working to open my own art studio designed to dive into many types of art styles such as photography, screen printing, fashion, music performance, and so much more. The goal is to build a place and community of artists to create, connect, unleash our creative talent, and learn from each other so we can thrive as artists and do what we love full time.
