We recently connected with Grayling Roberson and have shared our conversation below.

Grayling, appreciate you joining us today. Was there an experience or lesson you learned at a previous job that’s benefited your career afterwards?

I have learned that my time line is not a accurate time especially when doing new projects.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

I was born in Michigan I was raised by my mother and grandparents. I was always building go karts and club houses. My grandfather gave me a nickname he called me squallyguy. I love to build create and reconstruct . This is how I’ve been since childhood. When I was youngster I was always entering coloring contest in the Detroit news and one day I final won first prize. So for me painting was another avenue that allowed me to do that. The taking of a blank canvas and turning it into a colorful vision. I’m self taught and have been doing this for about twenty years now.

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

Yes put good art vibes out into the world

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?

Seeing and hearing people enjoying the beautiful art that I work so hard to create.
