Artist Profile
Tippy Tippens
I enjoy many aspects of creating objects 3D or 2D. Photography is an adventure in both capturing and creating mood. Drawing and painting are conduits for humor, emotion, freedom, and development. In making and designing things I thrive on exploration and problem solving. Addressing serious issues in a lighthearted or humorous manner is a key part of me.
Relationship to P2
I know Patrick from my many years in Richy - I met him my first year at VCU, I believe through Mike Marunde. My "county" friends lived on Park, right next door to what is now Kuba Kuba, then the pharmacy. I think he often visited them, and that's where we met. I remember Patrick as always having a smile on his face and would do anything for you. He's one of those people you know you could call in the middle of the night and he would gladly help you out. I'll remember him by his great laugh and huge smile!!!!!
