Peekaso

A friend of mine by the name of Deemont Peekaso has brought canvas painting a new edge. He is oftem seen on stage with R&B artist Raheem Devaugn or in the lounges and nightclubs of Washington D.C.

Here's his story:
Born at the Mecca of culture and diversity but raised in the city of innovation and originality, during the era of the urban explosion, one of Art's new-school visionaries was conceived. Demont Peekaso, self proclaimed "God's Puppet" was born in Queens, NY and moved to the Washington DC Metro area in the late 80's. He had a passion for Art early in his childhood. He first realized the impact of his talent when he designed his school's yearbook cover and painted murals on the school's walls in 1991. Demont Pinder graduated from High Point High School, a magnet school for gifted students with academic honors. It was there that he left his government name and then the light bulb illuminated. He soon moved his creations from paper and the schoolhouse wall to fabric. Peekaso painted designs on T-shirts and jeans for himself, friends and family. This is where Art became Fashion.
