MiCo, as he is known, was born and raised on the West Side of Chicago. These poor neighborhoods provided the rich inspiration and back-drop in many of his pieces. He moreover draws inspiration from his Christian upbringing. His art often transfuses racial and religious symbolism with woebegone vernacular themes as a way of triumphal and giving narrative to the African American experience.
