Art Guard 309 is a mixed media visual artist whose influences include painter Edgar Degas, director John Ford, actor Peter Faulk and rapper Slick Rick, all of which operated to peak perfection only using one eye. Her personal theory is that if she trains herself to only practice art using her left eye (her right is typically cover with her bangs) not only will she be paying tribute to her heroes, but when it it comes time to produce a serious piece, she’ll pin back the bang and use both eyes giving herself double the strength and visual ability. Similar to how olympic athletes train in cities with thinner air, 309 is positive this method is a bullseye.
