The Begining

NOM_Beginnings

So… NomNow can be a collective, gathering, motivation, signature, but it has endless definitions, it’s whatever you want it to be. To break it down. Nom in many languages means or suggests name, and Now is self explanatory, at the present time or moment, without further delay; immediately; at once. Now that the basic meanings are on the table. Here’s how we looked at it. Your NAME is involved in the NOW. Make something of your NAME, make it mean something to someone, do something to get you noticed, create something that will get people talking, make a difference in the muddy monotonous world that surrounds us.

On the way home from the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. Kevin and I were talking about graffiti art and how we’ve always been interested in, and wish we could do something like that. So after doodling around for a little, these drawings are what came of our thought process. We wanted to create something that wasn’t so simple, that wasn’t so readily understood something that could be taken in aesthetically prior to being judged for its context or subject matter. Matt, Kevin, and I have posted some of our NOMNOW works on our wordpresses and it has become somewhat of a signature for us. We are just looking to inspire and beautify everything and anything to the best of our ability.
