About the Artist…

I am Charles Williams. I am an Artist/Illustrator based out of Raleigh NC. I am from Brooklyn NY, but spent my childhood split between Brooklyn NY and Fayetteville NC. Spread Love Studio is a release valve for my imagination. My imagination is an amalgamation of my childhood memories and influences. I feel that there is a little bit of Hip-Hop, Anime, Old School Kung-Fu flicks, and my upbringing on display in my art.

My love for art began when I was in pre-school, and continued to stay with me as I grew up. My big sister introduced me to anime and various cartoons - The Boondocks, Speed Racer, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Sailor Moon, Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, Digimon, Dexter’s Lab, Bebe’s Kids, The Proud Family. From there, I fell deeper in love with art. I wanted to create/recreate what I saw on the television screen. I spent so much time watching Boomerang and Toonami, and that helped cultivate my style.

That’s enough about me. I feel that through my work you will learn all you need to know about me. Feel free to explore the site, and have a look around. I hope that you come back to see what new whacky drawings I create. You are always welcomed in this rest stop for my imagination. See you around.

One Love,

I am Charles Williams
