Proton Factories started his artistic career as a graffiti artist, but transitioned into painting & printmaking after being convicted as a gangster by the Charleston Police Department. This kind & gentle soul with a criminal record makes artwork that mirrors his positive, upbeat personality, featuring reimagined pop culture characters from comic books, movies, cartoons, video games, and more in a simplified, whimsical style.


We had such a fun time during this discussion about his artistic journey and his joyfulness is truly infectious - I know you’ll finish this episode with a smile on your face.
