Clifford "Spud" Johnson
Raised in Inglewood, California, Clifford "Spud" Johnson had numerous encounters with drugs, mayhem, and, ultimately, the California Youth Authority. These experiences gave Johnson a template for street life. The hustle of welfare-dependent families sculpted by the day-to-day hood life that he experienced provides the imagery he displays in his work.
