It took too long for me to establish this business relationship with Tyriese White solely because I took too long to develop TBS Market. However, sure enough, he had to be the first person I called.
I’ve always been a fan of the young artists’ pastel paintings. His early work demonstrated a different angle toward the political dysfunction that was happening in the world. His perspective as a young black artist said the same thing just in a much more fantastic and whimsical way. In this bio it explains “Tyriese’s pastel paintings, using light, powdery textures, smooth gradients, and obscure symbolism to iterate a sense of atmospheric freedom. Tapping into deep reserves of childlike wonder and nostalgia, along with mature clarity and judgment, he uses his work to reflect on his sentiments”. I couldn’t agree more.
Ty was a prodigy since he could pick up a pen and has been perfecting his craft ever since. His talent and ability to create anything with any utensil is uncanny. Although he’s self-taught, he attended early college programs offered by the likes of New York City’s Fashion Institute of Technology. Supporters have recognized his work at BAM Cinema and Mariah Carey.
He graduated from pastels to digital art, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to work with him full time. I’m pretty sure that 2019 is the going to be a bright year for The BACo Store and to be honest if Mariah Carey loves his work then who are we really to say we don't.
