These are original abstract acrylic paintings on a stretched canvas, each measuring 5" (width) x 5"
(height) x 1.5" (depth). Layers of blues, purple, green, pink, white, and accents of silver come together to
finish off this piece. This was painted as a set of 6, and is intended to be displayed individually or
together
The painting has finished edges and is ready to display! I have also signed the paintings on the edge so
that they can be displayed in whichever orientation looks best in your space.

My work tends to be bold and eccentric, with bright colors and varying facial features that tend to be classified as "ugly". I like to depict facial features that are consider undesirable and show off just how beautiful imperfections can be.

Dear Black girl is a piece to inspire young black girls that no matter what someone says about you are Royalty, Worthy, Valued, and overall LOVE.

The piece “Changing the Black Man's Optics” is a linoleum block print that challenges the stereotype western societies continue to portray of black men. American media is flooded with images of the black man being "threatening". Consequently, these images fuel the continuous murdering of black men and boys by the police. In this piece, I push against this stereotype by portraying a young black man in a hoodie with his hood on smiling for the camera and enjoying life. I intentionally emphasized the lightheartedness of the young man by creating a pattern in the hoodie that reflects the texture of a soft sweater.

Rwaur is in my plein air collection and was done on site in the gardens of Cranbrook.
I enhance my pigment for fully saturated color and enjoy using traditional methods after Claude Monet.
