Wow!!!!! Almost 2 years and running with this magazine and still at it. I have seen this magazine go through its ups and down an I am truly greatful for where it's going. Sure it might not be the best magazine available but I sure do my best monthly to make sure to get exposeure to artist of all kinds who want the exposure. However things are changing in 2017 with Aspiring Artist Magazine and its for the good. This year the only way to get into our magazine is to participate in events we host or book a one on one photo shoot with one of our staff photographers. Every year we get better and better and to make iteven better we're going print fall this year. Thank you for for everyone who supports our efforts and thank you to everyone who belives in us. We strive to get better an better and with your help were getting there!!! Thank you family, friends and fans. You are greatly appreciated!!!! This month I feature one of my favorite child models Lenon Z Smith. I first met Lenon while shooting his older brother and Model/Actress Darrius Bradshaw. Too shy to actually do a photo shoot Lenon would watch his older brother take pictures and learn. Soon after, I got the call that lenon was ready to shoot and I jumped at the opportunity to shoot with him. Now he's gained the title "Prince of the Runway" in atlanta and one of the most sought after children amongst the Atlanta Kid model runway events. Pleasure to have him grace my cover and I look forward to seeing where the future goes for the kid. Keep up the good work Lenon
