Southern California artist Nikkolas Smith has shared a look at a new piece that he created as a tribute to the life of Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman, who died last month at the age of 43 after a battle with colon cancer. The artwork is now on display on the former ESPN Zone building in Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort
Smith, who worked at Walt Disney Imagineering for 11 years, is a concept artist, author of children’s books, and film illustrator.
My #KingChad tribute is now on display at Downtown Disney. I’m so thankful to be able to honor Chadwick’s life and purpose in this way. I am grateful to the @Disney family for being so supportive of my journey as an artist.
