Thad’s thoughts on creative thinking:

Thad firmly believes creativity is a versatile tool, not just a paintbrush. This definition encapsulates the belief that being ‘creative’ requires adaptability, often innovating constantly and seeing one’s artistic process as being in flux. In the visual arts and as an art enthusiast, Thad appreciates all forms of creative expression. Still, he is particularly inspired by works that challenge the status quo, such as those by Banksy or Basquiat.

How Thad stays creative:

To stay updated with the latest trends in the creative industry, Thad actively engages with various visual media and advertising. He seeks inspiration from online platforms like Juxtapoz Magazine and in-person visits to renowned art spaces like the Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh, PA. Just as being a good writer requires reading often, being a good artist requires staying constantly updated with the latest trends in fine arts.
