His Story

Leon Willis is a graffiti writer and the creator of I Love You Merch.

He began writing graffiti over 30 years ago to express his repressed anger. He started a screen printing business in 2006 to create sustainability as an artist by mass producing his original artwork. Since 2013, Mr. Willis taught graffiti art, martial arts, and mindfulness in schools.  

He’s been incarcerated for his art form and now he’s a professional artist, art educator, and the creator of the I Love You collection.

His hand lettered 'I Love You' on hoodies, tees, and stickers is to remind this culture to return to a state of love because you can alchemize anything with love!
