Bold. Raw. Human.

About the Artist

Frankinstev blends street energy with studio discipline. Canvases pull from childhood snapshots, city movement, and rebuilding community—work that feels lived-in, not distant.

Approach: Graphite, acrylic, collage, and found texture—layered for clarity and punch.

Themes: Family, faith, recovery, and the small acts that turn survival into momentum.

Studio Notes: Sketch. Layer. Edit. Leave room for breath so viewers can step inside the story.

Community Impact

Art lives outside the studio. From blanket drives to youth workshops, the work keeps moving.

Small Acts, Big Heat

Partnering with local groups, we deliver warmth and practical help across Chicago winters. It’s simple: show up, share what you have, and keep the circle going.

What’s next: free weekend sketch circles, materials drives, and micro‑grants for youth art pop‑ups.
