Budding artist

Very fine young man

Working hard to meet his goals
With dreams of his own.


Tyrice is a freshman at the Minneapolis School of Art and Design. While carrying out my groceries from Lund's market in Highland Park, he described his passion for drawing, design, and learning about art. I urged him to find a mentor in the field that would supplement what he's learning in school to help build on and develop his natural talent. One of the more talkative and self-assured students I've met while shopping.

  10. I hope he takes your advice. Sometimes all someone needs is a kindly mentor, or a little occasional ego boost.
