Today we’d like to introduce you to Makesha Williamson.
Every artist has a unique story. Can you briefly walk us through yours?
My name is Makesha I am a Writer, Producer, Director. A single mom of 6 children ages 28 -19 years old and two grandchildren. I have obtained two college degrees “Biology” & “Computer Information Systems”, been a Nurse Tech for over 15 years, Cosmetology (Hair Braider) and several other credentials. I’m well grounded and a Jack of Trades.
Please tell us about your art.
I moved to Atlanta to work on pursuing my film career. I currently have 45 Feature films, TV Pilots and Short films in production and development. I have written two books that are currently available on Amazon entitled “35-Drastic Changes” & “14 and Pregnant” and I am writing my 3rd book “Broken Pieces” Coming Soon. I am currently in production of my first Feature Film “45 Days” and currently working as an Associate Producer on the new reality show “Carib Life ATL”.
What do you think about conditions for artists today? Has life become easier or harder for artists in recent years? What can cities like ours do to encourage and help art and artists thrive?
Life has become easier for independent artist with social media and the ability to maintain local support. Once everyone starts supporting one another, things will flourish for young entrepreneurs. It’s hard to get noticed today as the ” It’s who you know” concept has become “It’s all about who knows you”. As an independent artist, I am living & doing what I love vs. what is safe living (A 9 to 5).
How or where can people see your work? How can people support your work?
