Mack Leon Bishop III

Mack Leon Bishop III is a Texas Southern University and Houston Baptist University alumnus who is a visual artist by the name of #Worldurbanartist on social media, Director of Arts/Board Member of Swag Achievement Organization, and former Art Teacher at Spring Independent School District. He’s also made guest appearances and/or displayed his artworks in over 20 art exhibitions, 4 fine art-driven festivals, PBS, Houston's oldest station KCOH, The Houston Fox26, and KHOU Great Day with Debra Duncan.

Mack is also a devoted father of four sons, Manolo, Mansur, Malik and Mack IV (Onyi) , and the husband of Misty L Bishop. He is originally from the Bryan/College Station area even though he has resided in Houston for the past 20 years with his family. Mack was heavily influenced to embrace the arts by studying the styles of his late uncle, Thomas Lee Robertson at an early age. Then in high school as a star athlete, his mother forced him to take Home Economics which was no laughing matter. She believed he should learn how to sew and cook for himself. In other words, she wanted Mack to be well rounded and independent. So, this small transition during high school and his late uncle being an influential factor of his talent have definitely played a significant role in his life and mold him to be a visual artist that is not afraid to create or venture out of his comfort zone with an eccentric, vibrant and mosaic style with items we take granted of such as fallen tree branches, shattered glass and broken doors. Symbolically, Mack uses the doors as a canvas for 60% of his art composition.

He states the doors are in our own reality, and in spite of the reality, we are told to accept it; so, we blaze a trail and proof that we as a people create embrace the fire for which we are conceived of light and destined by Mother Nature...the Queen of all creation to direct our own path. Therefore, Mother Nature blessed all of us to claim our place in a divine purpose as this generation’s next leader to open the doors and blaze the trails of our life journey.
