Devil Chicken Design

1.  How do you/your products embody “BuffaLove?”
I am a visual artist from Buffalo.  All of my work in some way or another reflects my life in this city.  I see my work as a reflection of both the hardships and successes of Buffalo.  My work is layered and textured with a variety of materials and media.  It shows the scars of the process that it went through to become something new, something more than what it was originally intended to be.  To me that is what Buffalo is.  That is why I choose to live and work here.

 2. What are you selling at BuffaLoveFest on May 30^th?

 The BuffaLoveFest is a great opportunity to connect with the community and showcase the work that I have produced.  The best part of my work with Devil Chicken Design is the opportunity to meet and communicate with the people of the towns we exhibit in.  That is what I am looking forward to most about the BuffaLoveFest.  The icing on the cake is that I will get that opportunity in such a unique and historical location like the Buffalo Zoo!

 3.How does your business contribute to our community?

Devil Chicken Design contributes to the community by providing visual imagery unique to Buffalo.  I am proud to be a part of the resurgence of our city. A resurgence that has been spurred forward by the arts and cultures that have been a part of our city for over 100 years.

2.What are you selling at BuffaLoveFest on May 30th?
