Artist Statement
My stylistic figuration employs a kind of pixelation/pointillist hybridization that references photography while highlighting painterly brushstrokes. I have a deep affection for painting that is evidenced through imagery that uniquely synthesizes portraiture and expressionistic mark-making.
My subjects symbolize the perseverance of Black culture and the kind of indefinable grace that can be maintained through struggle.
