His career spans major collaborations with prominent brands such as Mercedes, Yeezy, Topps, and more. His Best Friend is John JP Thomspon, the inspiration behind his latest work, JP the MoneyBear.

ABOUT THE JP EFFECT COLLECTION

John JP Thompson was Saladeen’s best friend who passed away from Cancer in 2013. JP was a voice of encouragement in Saladeen’s life during a time where he was doubtful of his talent as an artist and afraid to share his work. Today, Saladeen’s art is recognized all over the world for its vibrant and abstract approach – giving us a glimpse into how JP saw the world.

Saladeen attributes his success to the lessons he learned from JP while he EFFECTed this earth with his uplifting and motivating spirit. The JP Effect is a movement in a world where dreaming big is encouraged and motivation can be found at every turn.
