Welcome back! I caught Nikko aka AliSix at a very pivotable part of his life fresh off a Mexico trip and right before his Japan trip, we sat down and I learned a lot about the multimedia artist. You know his character Richie the Raccoon but latley he has introduced a new character "King" his Tiger we get into the development of him.

All the mural work he has been doing for small businesses and even bigger companies like Warner Bros. We talk about the importance of "showing face" and interacting with other artists, this could lead to being invited to be in future shows, but creating sick art is key! Nikko has been one of the most consistent artists in the city but he talks about how sometimes he feels like he's running in circles, getting out of the country has helped him stay inspired and get out of his comfort zone.

His graffiti background taught him characters and color theory, now he is able to use that in his mural work, his encounters with the police and the best way to go about tagging now. You can tell Nikko has a passion for super hero's and cartoons, we talk about his biggest inspirations that even influence how he dresses now.
