We Do A Little

In this week’s episode, we sit down with Vinnie Hager. Vinnie is an artist from Baltimore who focuses on a wide variety of mediums spanning from digital art to streetwear and even tables and stools. His style is immediately recognizable with a mixture of glyphs and objects including his signature flowers, eyes, water drops, smileys, hearts and envelopes.

We dive into Vinnie’s morning routine, the evolution of his artistic style, skateboarding, falling into the NFT rabbit hole and so much more.
