Good Day,
My name is Xavier Payne and I am a graphic designer and artist based in Nashville, Tennessee. My work is influenced by fashion, pop & Hip-Hop culture, contemporary and historical art, photography, and typography. I make really colorful, sleek designs and illustrations and paintings. My direct artistic influences include, but are not limited to: Frank Frazetta, Philip Burke, Cey Adams, Mike Thompson, Kara Walker, Aaron Douglas, Emory Douglas, Mark Rothko, and Chuck Close. I love what I do and I hope to be doing it for a long time.
The main characteristics of my work are unique concepts and drawings, heavily saturated colors, and bold shapes. But like any good visual communicator would say, I can show you who I am better than I can tell you…so here we go. My work is split into categories, on your immediate left.
