Meet Star Bourgoyne | Artist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Star Bourgoyne and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
As of late I have been in an amazing creative zone! I’ve really been enjoying building my portfolio and experimenting with new elements or new ways of spinning elements I already utilize in my style as an artist. I’ve noticed that my portfolio has gotten a lot more colorful for example. While vivid color has always been a staple in my work, I’ve been VERY mobile the past few months and I’ve just been in awe with the new experiences I’ve been having. I feel like my recent work and how colorful it is, represents how I’ve been feeling and the way I’ve been seeing and enjoying art lately. I’m also very proud of how I’ve been nailing composition lately, and overall how I’ve been flexing my creative eye. The recent evolution of my skill and creativity is something that makes me very proud these days along with my breakthroughs as a creative director.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Los Angeles is FULL of amazing things to do. Starting with my favorite: the food haha; I definitely have to recommend Donut Friend or Dear Bella Creamery for a sweet treat. They have the best vegan breakfast and desserts. Now for a savory palette, I gotta recommend Taste of the Carribean or Good Thai Kitchen; THEE best Thai and Jamaican food I’ve ever had, and with an affordable menu to match! The Hollywood Bowl has to be one of my favorite venues ever: they have some of the best acts hit their stage and the atmosphere is always so nice. Now, everyone who visits LA always wants to feel a certain vibe; I think West Hollywood has to be my favorite city in LA and captures the vibe so effortlessly. Especially at night, WeHo has the sights, the food, the people, and there is always something to do.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
For over a year now @abayomitheshotta has been such an incredible friend and supporter of mine. Since day 1 he has so graciously given me such heartfelt guidance and has been in my corner as a professional and as a friend. Without his comfort and support in this industry I definitely wouldn’t be where I am today; and I’m so greatful to be able to look up to such an amazing artist. His work speaks volumes about his love for telling stories and shows off his flawless execution so effortlessly. I am proud to know him in this space and wish him nothing but the best.
