Cbabi Bayoc

Cbabi Bayoc (pronounced “kuh-BOB-ee”) is an internationally recognized visual artist and illustrator based in St. Louis, Missouri, whose work — rooted in bold color, expressive line, and what he calls “phunk” — centers on family, music, and community. Born Clifford Miskell Jr., he crafted both halves of his name as a declaration of identity: Cbabi as an acronym for “Creative Black Artist Battling Ignorance,” and Bayoc for “Blessed African Youth of Creativity.” After honing his craft as a caricature artist, he became a regular illustrator for Rap Pages magazine, and his work soon attracted the attention of some of music’s most celebrated figures.

Bayoc describes his style as improvisational — much like a jazz piece — and his practice spans canvas paintings, community murals, and children’s book illustration, enlivening buildings and neighborhoods across St. Louis and beyond. His most celebrated commission came in 2001 when Prince selected Bayoc’s painting “Reine Keis Quintet” as the cover art for his studio album The Rainbow Children. In 2012, he launched 365 Days with Dad, a yearlong daily painting series creating positive images of Black fatherhood that became a viral phenomenon and one of the most talked-about art projects of its kind. His music-deep sensibility and joyful, kinetic visual language make him a natural fit for the Legacy Audio canvas.

Killer Napkins

Killer Napkins is the pseudonym of multi-disciplinary artist Jason Spencer, born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, who studied fine art at a local college before expanding his practice to encompass illustration, apparel design, sculpture, and large-scale mural painting. His body of work pays rich homage to the comic books, sci-fi, and outsider art that shaped his visual imagination — a universe of creatures, characters, and cosmic strangeness rendered with the technical fluency of a classically trained illustrator and the edge of someone who clearly enjoys operating just outside the mainstream. His practice spans album art, t-shirt design, label illustration, sculpture, installation, and beyond, reflecting an artist who refuses to be confined to a single medium or surface.

Spencer’s large-scale mural work has left a distinctive mark on St. Louis, including a wraparound installation at Nebula coworking space that captured what he described as “the wacky, the weird, and the machinery” of its environment, as well as a 40-foot mural covering an entire west wall of the building’s third floor. His signature aesthetic — where the playful and the unsettling occupy the same frame — produces work that is immediately arresting and endlessly re-examined. Spencer brings that same tension to his artwork on the Aeris XD: the unexpected made beautiful, the strange made precise.

Paco Rosic

Paco Rosic was born in Sarajevo in 1979 and displayed an early gift for art before his family fled Bosnia during the war in 1992, eventually settling in Waterloo, Iowa, after years in Germany. It was on the streets of Germany that Rosic was first introduced to graffiti art, learning to paint alongside seasoned practitioners on buildings, tunnels, and trains — developing the aerosol mastery that would later define his career. Inspired by the Italian Renaissance masters Andrea Pozzo and Michelangelo, he fused that street-born technique with fine art ambition, creating a practice uniquely positioned between the underground and the monumental.

His signature achievement is a 2,500-square-foot spray-paint recreation of the Sistine Chapel ceiling — the first reproduction of the original masterpiece in 500 years — which drew tens of thousands of visitors from around the world. He has since turned that same laser focus on the history of St. Louis, painting a 1,000-square-foot chronicle of the city across the ceiling and walls of a downtown building. Whether working in his signature aerosol technique, exploring emotionally driven portraiture, or capturing the raw texture of life in Cambodia on canvas, Rosic brings the same driven intensity to every surface he touches — making a hand-painted Legacy Audio loudspeaker a fitting next chapter in a career built on the belief that extraordinary art belongs everywhere.
