Rhode Montijo. I first came upon Rhode's work back in 95' as a High School Freshman. Two teachers named Mr. Cox (Art) and Mr. Woo (Journalism) would go on and on about how great Rhode was and how he was the High School art rockstar a few years prior to me. I soon had to gain the respect of these two teachers by becoming as good or better of an artist Rhode was. Years later I finally met Rhode during a visit back to our hometown of Stockton, CA. Soon enough, I was inspired at how and what Rhode was doing with his artistic career and soon invited him to join the CulpritResearchProject. It's inspiring to see Rhode Montijo putting so much character and soul into his work especially during times of the common and trendy San Francisco Art scene.
