About 3 months ago I came across a page that showed individuality, self-expression and creativity. Whenever I see a page that shows me something I’ve never seen before, I’m pretty quick to press the follow button. This particular page belonged to a black artist by the name of Parron Allen. 

Hailing from the south, Greenwood Mississippi to be exact, @parron.allen is the epitome of southern comfort and southern hospitality. Though I’ve only been in NYC for 3 years, you quickly forget what manners looks like. As soon as Parron and I started talking, I was immediately attracted to his genuinity and kindness that come forth so effortlessly.

It was a pleasure to meet him and get to know more about his brand, his life as a young struggling artist in NYC and how those obstacles have shaped him to be the person he is today.
