ABOUT

Who Is Ohthasmike

Ohthasmike is Michael Wall. I was Born and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina where I got my BA in Visual arts & Design at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in 2011. Using earth tones and vibrant colors, I try to capture my interpretation of everyday black folk mainly in oils. 

I got the name Ohthasmike from a friend of a friend in college that called me Will mistakenly. After realizing and apologizing "Oh that's Mike!" The name stuck to me and I've been using it ever since.

After completing school, I felt the need to stretch my wings and exercise my creativity in a new environment. I wanted the similar community feel that I love from home but also more of that big city feeling. With so much history and culture that comes with Atlanta, I felt drawn to the area. In 2014 I moved to Decatur, Ga where I've been since working as a freelance artist.
