He has built a legacy amongst the creative art community in locally and globally having done murals and paintings. Locally you can also find his work in places like @alibiyeg, Rec room and @Ultimatowers.

We sat down with Rahmaan to discuss how a serendipitous fashion show allowed him to discover that he could actually get paid for his artwork and creative skills, rather it just being a lifelong passion. Rahmaan shares some tips on relationship building and how he was able to leverage relationships to develop a high-profile clientele. Additionally, Rahmaan shares lessons he’s learned along the way, such as the importance of betting on yourself, and gives advice to up and coming artists.
