-Anxiety only exist when you overthink. part 4: Let passion lead
We always have goals and intentions but we actually never know where life will take us next. Sometimes we embrace things that aren’t always the healthiest for us because it feels good and we are letting confidence and passion lead. There’s ultimately nothing wrong with that but you have to stay conscious of your goals and aspirations that you see for yourself. This painting is a physical representation of the mental struggle and indecisiveness I have been going through. Fighting to stay focused, inspired, and passionate about canvas art. The paint pour oozing over the canvas trying to hide the throw represents my effort and push to stay creative and consistent. My letters peak out from behind almost like someone poking their head around a corner. I wanted to also incorporate my traditional line and color contrast techniques. Shapes and windows of chaos clash against each other but blend at the same time. Don’t overthink your journey. Stay consistent and keep your heart and mind open but don’t overthink. Anxiety only exist when you overthink.

-Words Are Spells
This was my first painting where I incorporated my figurative with my abstract work. It’s titled “Words Are Spells” because for years I did not believe I had the ability to get into figurative art, I just just never believed in myself. Even though I had doubts I always told myself I wanted to do it and it slowly fell into place. First it was faces, then hands, and then animals. Now I have the confidence to do whatever I want and believe in myself. I had to manifest my super powers.

-Bold and Broken
While crafting this artwork, I found myself searching for inspiration in a labyrinth of uncertainty. I decided to overlay a new style I've been experimenting with onto an old canvas, and the fusion of the two resulted in a perfect clash. Surprisingly, it breathed new life into my creative soul. The shattered visage I painted reflects those moments when life feels like a desperate struggle, as if I'm grasping onto every last thread. The unending pursuit for more and the question of whether there's a limit remains an enigma, known only to the divine.

-Pillars Of Us
With the cross I wanted to represent a moment in time. This virus will be something that will be forever remembered in history. I wanted to use the medical supplies as a representation and a reminder of this fight for humanity. I chose the Bible paper because it is a book of beliefs and concepts that people base their whole lives around. Also the rebellious act of ripping the Bible up for art can be questioned as blasphemy and disrespectful. I don’t see it that way. I needed to chose a medium to grab people’s attention, make their skin crawl a little, but ultimately leaving them with a true sense of hope and faith. The color splatter represents all the different cultures, countries, and people around the world that base their whole lives off of these 2 concepts, Religion and Health.

-Protect Black Women
I have witnessed the profound social impact my art can have. Three years ago I released a painting titled "Protect Black Women," and it quickly went viral. The piece garnered recognition from all corners of the globe, to the extent that galleries reached out to invite me to exhibit it. I had no idea at the time the magnitude of the message I was conveying, but that is the remarkable beauty of creating art. It possesses the ability to transcend boundaries and resonate deeply with individuals, igniting conversations and sparking meaningful change. The mission never changes. Just new task come ahead. Live and die for the family and always protect the queen. The elegance mixed with violence pulls my soul deep into this piece

There’s been a lot going on in the world. For once it feels like the voices are being heard... I wanted to create a image that represents the voices that were silenced along the longggg journey....Creating this piece I have received a lot of hate on all of my platforms... It hurts me, it angers me, it confuses me, but it won’t silence me. I won’t stop until I drop, and even then the messages will live on... Don’t be scared to stand up for what you believe in.

-Blood Money Nation
-Star Power
With my celebrity portraits I always try and represent the time period of when we were introduced to them. Also known as there golden era. My personal favorite time in Michael Jackson’s career was when he was in his 20’s as well as when he was with The Jackson 5. Something about the childhood of Michael has always resonated with me. The non-stop drive and dedication to greatness. Anything it takes.

-Congested Creative Chaos
I hate being artistically blocked. Time starts moving slow and everything seems so grim. That’s when the depression starts to kick in. You have to always stay tapped in with the things that make you smile. The things that make you feel whole. Try new things with your loves. I really love this piece because it’s so accurate to the mental space I’m in. There are elements of my original techniques, but I also wanted to try exploring some new mediums and applications. I’m blessed to have a creative outlet. I will try my hardest to never take that for granted.
