About

TEMPORAROLY NOT FAMOUS

Temporarily Not Famous began as a name for an art brand—hand-painted handbags, statement clothing, and wearable pieces that blur the lines between fashion, art, and visual storytelling. But what started as a label quickly became more than just a tagline; it evolved into a persona, a presence, and a stage name for a multifaceted artist who draws, paints, and performs in ways that are anything but ordinary.

The name is a playful nod to Andy Warhol’s iconic quote, “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” It’s a cheeky reflection of the fame-chasing culture we live in, where identity and visibility are fluid, and where art, personality, and performance often collide.

With a whimsical spirit and an irreverent wink, Temporarily Not Famous captures the in-between—the space where art lives before the spotlight hits, and the beauty of creating for the moment. Whether it’s ambidextrous continuous line portraiture performed live, or a painted leather bag that stops people in the street, this brand thrives in the now.

Artist Statement

My work explores presence, identity, and impermanence through the physical act of drawing.

Using both hands simultaneously, I create continuous line drawings live and in real time— This technique forces me to surrender control, quiet the ego, and exist fully in the moment. The resulting images are immediate, unfiltered, and often unexpected—artifacts of a moment that can’t be rehearsed or repeated.

After the initial drawing, I often return to the piece and add color using markers or paint, highlighting certain areas. This gives the work a vibrant energy

At its core, my art is about paying attention—to people, to presence, to process. By inviting spontaneity and rejecting overproduction, I aim to create a body of work that values the now, the human, and the imperfectly true.
