Pharrell x ARTST.com. As previously mentioned, Pharrell has recently been actively involved in the fine arts industry (check these candles and chairs he designed). It’s good to see that he is taking a positive stance to educate the hip-hop world on the fine arts and in doing so has created ARTST Guild & Gallery, an online community for artists to share their work, their ideas and their passion. The name ARTST comes from Pharrell‚Äôs idea that ‚ÄúThere is no I because it‚Äôs not about me.‚Äù He goes on to state:

“Being in N.E.R.D. you’ll notice that we always send out messages about what kids can do, what they can become, you can wait for the stars to align for you or you can reach up into the sky and align the stars. We created this network to give people an opportunity to get the visibility they deserve, to reach into the sky.”

According to the website press release “members can upload and showcase anything creative: music, architecture, painting, or even fashion, and then comment on the work of others and collaborate with each other. More than just a gallery, it’s a guild for those who create art.” Make sure to check it out.
