Early life
Born in Fort Wayne Indiana but raised Auburn Indiana Tailored Truth enjoyed learning and observation which influenced his artwork as he grew older. Hip-Hop was a large influence of Tailored Truth's life growing up, and when he arrived to Battle Creek Michigan he would rediscover this love for Hip-Hop by the abundant Graffiti in the streets. In Michigan, Tailored Truth would create his streetwear brand, I Seek Knowledge and connect with the infamous art collective INDECLINE. Tailored Truth would end up painting under many names: ISK, I Seek Knowledge, MOLE, LOL, Lord of Light, PIXL, and of course Tailored Truth. The second year of Color The Creek also had the artist create pieces in the streets during the summer festival. Tailored Truth would go on to paint and volunteer in Color the Creek every year including the Black Lives Matter Murals Project in Battle Creek that Color the Creek helped organize and fund.
Tailored Truth's murals would lead him to some friends he met in Kansas City at Sprayseemo Mural Festival down to Art Basel in Miami Florida for aWall Mural Projects. This brought Tailored Truth back 3 years in a row to meet new clients who would buy artwork from him at The Bomb Shelter in Miami in partnership with aWall Mural Projects.
Tailored Truth says his art has evolved over time utilizing aerosol spray paints, paint brushes, paint rollers, acrylic and oil paints, stencils, and more while creating pieces of work. From working with the communities to cover hate speech or just creating works to invoke thought, many communities and businesses throughout the world are now covered in Tailored Truth Artworks.
Commercial Work
Tailored Truth has many mural installations in Battle Creek for places like the Leila Arboretum, Battle Creek Foundation, Changes Salon, and more.
