Demont has been an artist and visionary from the beginning of his life. Over his professional career he has had the opportunity to participate in experiences one could only dream of. 

For over a decade, Demont has had the privilege and honor of showcasing his illustrations and masterpieces for some of the most talented in the music industry to include, 3x Grammy Nominated R&B Singer Raheem DeVaughn, Eric B and Rakim.  As the Art Director and On-Stage Painter Demont has taken over the Art World through canvas and technology, captivating music lovers across the globe through his artwork on Raheem's Debut album, "The Love Experience".  

As an advocate for the community, Demont has used his art to connect with the community in conjunction with companies such as Apple.  Honing in on the importance of art, technology, and community, Demont partnered up with Apple SoHo in NYC to bring inspiration to create to others in the "Apple IPad Art Demonstration ''.  Also, within the DMV Demont had the privilege of donating his artwork supporting raising funds and awareness for the DMV Help Haiti Benefit Concerts of 2010 and 2011.

Over the past few years Demont has used his art to memorialize young men and women who have paid the ultimate sacrifice and lost their lives too early, as well as historic entertainers who will forever be cherished.  His tributes include Philandro Castile, Stephen Clarke, Aretha Franklin, Nipsey Hustle, and many others. Today you can find Demont and his talents around the world as he tours with Eric B and Rakim, we at StorY are proud to announce this collaboration with one of the Art Worlds legends and we can hardly wait to bring you the magic.

At first glance, they look like colorful paintings or collages of paper.  Upon close investigation, you will find that he constructs many of his portraits from clothing!  Shirts, socks, shoes, and other items from around his house, combine together to make images of celebrities and friends from his neighborhood.  Occasionally, Demont himself, can be found within the large-scale portraits.  Try to find him in some of these examples:
