Description: Purvis Young origional Art. Know as the poet of Overtown, his art has been seen around the world, a documentary was produced about him. The guy was so easy going he would talk to anyone. He said emotion and imagination is what inspiried him. He saw himself as a warrior bringing good and light to the world. He painted on whatever he could find and with whatever material he had.
