He routinely showed fine-art pieces in Miami, New York City, and European countries including Germany. TMNK was a local-level street artist who got famous very quickly. In 2016, TMNK committed suicide, and after his passing, his precious pieces of original artwork have skyrocketed in value.

Experts are currently comparing him to Jean-Michel Basquiat.

This piece, “First Grade,” is an original painting executed with acrylic on paper.

This piece was exhibited at N’NAMDI Gallery during the world premiere of the TMNK documentary, shown as part of Art Basel Miami 2021.
