About yourself

She attained her love for drawing, illustrating and painting while studying graphic design as well as a multitude of various types of art at Philadelphia\'s Hussian School of Art, and began her design career creating promotional materials for the entertainment and restaurant industries while managing an urban nightclub Brave New World. Her current client roster includes Dyana Williams, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Okayplayer, The Sound of Philladelphia (TSOP/Kenny Gamble), Warmdaddy\'s, Zanzibar Blue, EST, to name a few.

With one door opening after another, Stacey\'s next venture in life was to start a promotion and event planning company, Squarebiz along with her partner, Ahmir ?uestlove Thompson of The Roots. That was where it all started, in 2001. Her renowned organization has been a staple of Philly nightlife with constant events which includes the infamous, Tastytreats every saturday night for 7 years.. Squarebiz has worldwide fans, as she has produced events with super-stars Prince ( managed and planned his 3 private afterparties for his philadelphia tour ), DJ Jazzy Jeff, Gangstarr, KRS-One, Lil\' Louie Vega ( MAW ), Tony Touch, Little Brother, Kool Herc, Beverly Bond, Jill Scott, John Legend, Jamie Foxx and many others. She has also been responsible for branding a merchandise line, those infamous \"jawn\" t-shirts as well as creating a much needed urban newpaper for Philadelphia, The Jawn.

Stacey\'s skill in art and illustration became more and more a part of her life as her acrylic and ink works of urban/comic book/graffiti-esque art came sneaking out on the scene. Her much admired works on wood, canvas and sneakers have been featured on the walls of MTV\'s The Real World Philadelphia house and on UPN 57\'s Half and Half, the pages of Jill Scott\'s book of poetry, The Moments, The Minutes, The Hours, and a pair of Air Force One\'s for the Sneaker Pimps Tour. Since her first showcase 5 years ago, the momentum has grown to allow art to be a major part of her daily schedule. She has no plans of stopping now. With constant exhibitions and features on constant rotation, you\'re bound to see and recognize her work anywhere.

Bringing all of her talents together was what created FLYGIRRL. A place where art, design, music and ground breaking promotions come together with style. For further information about Stacey Wilson and all her creations please visit www.flygirrl.com and www.myspace.com/flyart
