Bug Art
Jamaican Sign Artist
Born into a family lineage of traditional craftsmen in Westmoreland, Rushane Drummondwas born to be an artist. Raised in an environment surrounded by creativity, Jamaica's awe inspiring natural beauty, pulsating colors, and a unique history of hand drawn typography & signage all helped shape a very distinct and vibrant artistic style.
Rushane majored in visual art at Frome Technical High School and spent most of his free time visiting artists at local sign shops on the streets of Savanna-La-Mar. Rushane eventually began to grow & develop a style that combined all of his influences, under the guided mentorship of professional artists and typographers. In 2009, Rushane passed the visual art CXC exam in 2009, launching his career as an independent artist. The streets of Western Jamaica have since born witness to Rushane's extraordinary bursts of color, wise & humorous messages and a typographic style brimming with energy and life.
