Bollee Patino is an emerging street-art and new contemporary artist in Tampa, FL.

Bollee, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today? I am born and raised in West Tampa, Florida and spent most of my youth drawing, skateboarding and listening to hip hop. I have always been a creative person by nature, but when I found graffiti, I was hooked and this is what I wanted to do. I was memorized by the speed, the colors and the skill set New York artists had with only a can of spray paint and low light. I was fascinated with how they approached trains, subways, tunnels, and other walls at a large scale to mark their existence.
Interview with Bollee Patino. I found it to be a way to express myself, and allow me to be seen without being present. As an introvert, I found it was hard to fit in and looked for ways to show that I existed without being physically in the spotlight. I immediately started to develop my own style, from letters to tagging and set out paint the city of Tampa.
