Sounds Like NYC

📸On Episode 20 of Sounds LIke NYC, I got to sit down with Mixed Media Painter Jennifer Sanchez! 🎨

 

Using primarily Spray Paint, Acrylic, and Oils Paints on Canvas and, more recently, murals, Jennifer combines traditional painting styles with a very urban/graffiti art look.

 

Living in NYC all her life and being born into a very low-income Puerto Rican family, Jennifer had always told everyone she wanted to become a famous artist and use her art to help the community and the poor.

 

Becuase she wants to live up to her dreams Jennifer is always looking for opportunities to combine art with her passion for community service.

 

Jennifer is currently selling prints of her most current painting to raise funds for an event gathering food and toiletries for the homeless in NYC.

On Episode #013 of Sounds Like NYC, we got to sit down with electropop/indie-pop musician Elliot Lee. Dropping out of pre-medical school and moving to NYC, Elliot instead decided to "give a voice to the voiceless" and make music. 

 

"I fell one of the keys to writing is, what I do is just I write a flow of consciousness on the paper, writing down everything that comes to mind around the topic and if a rhyme pops into my head I'll write that down. At first, I did definitely focus too much on writing, and after a while, you learn to not focus so much on it."
