Colette Miller: An Exclusive Interview with A.I.M.O.
There are a few artists that specialize in painting/drawing wings and you clearly have your own voice in this category. Can you kindly tell our readers how you started your Global Angel Wings Project's journey? The Global Angel Wings Project started in 2012 on the streets of downtown Los Angeles. The idea or vision of huge human sized wings came to me around 2011-2012. While driving through LA and seeing all the big walls, I started imagining wings on them for some reason. So
Lala Abaddon: An Exclusive Interview with A.I.M.O.
Lala, I have been in awe of your work for some time now. How long does it take to generally finish one piece? Do you start a few at one time or see one through from start to finish?

Yes, that is correct. I literally pour paint and ink into the water and photograph it from outside of a 200 gallon aquarium filled with water. I would imagine you never photograph the same piece twice as it is an ever changing canvas so to speak. It's more like a documentary of a moment in time. W
Damien Mitchell: An Exclusive Interview with A.I.M.O.
What is your personal favorite subject matter to paint and why? Letters. First and foremost. Whenever I pick up a can or marker I'm always drawing letters. Lately I've been painting pictures of people and places on walls but first thing in the morning and last thing at night- I'm writing letters. Is there a colour palette you choose to use over others? How do you decide which colours to paint with? Are the pieces designed in full detail before you paint? For a few years I was
