Taji Artist Lounge: Alan Gray
As a kid, Alan Gray always loved comic books and anime. He adored reading comic books and the depth of the storytelling. His father used to watch anime with him and they would bond over it. Alan began drawing in kindergarten and hasn’t stopped since. 5 years ago, the direction of his art changed.
“With me coming into knowledge of self and learning whats been happening to my people, I wanted to use my art to represent my community through the medium I love so much. I never had access to digital resources, so I always focused on perfecting my craft the old fashion way. I’m hugely inspired by the comic book artist I saw as a child, but anime has really influenced my style and storytelling.”
You can find Alan’s art on instagram at @blackgodcomics and at blackgodcomics on facebook.
