Living in NYC Improves Your Taste
When I first moved to New York, I found a piece of artwork at an artist flea market near my house for my bedroom. I asked the artist where he gets his inspiration from. He said, “I was born and raised in Harlem. I’ve seen dope shit all my life. My artwork is the accumulation of that experience.”
In NYC, we’re immersed in a vibrant, eclectic environment. Whether it’s how people dress, the graffiti on the street, or the various events in the city, inspiration is everywhere. Despite the high cost of living, just living in New York City improves your taste. And every artist knows that taste is priceless.
