Why Chameleon Jones?
It's a question I get asked often. Your name is Ali, why do you call it "Chameleon Jones" Art?
It's about blending in and standing out all at the same time, which means, adaptability. I have a strong belief that in life and in art that we have to be adaptable and be able to adjust in order to evolve.
The name embodies this philosophy for me.
