My artwork embodies the notion of power, purpose and divinity by both challenging and changing the Black narrative. Our society is saturated with negative images of Black men and women via social media, propaganda, news outlets, books etc. I counteract this by creating beautiful portraits of people of color. In this political climate, minorities, especially peoples of the African Diaspora often get overlooked. My work places Black people as the subject matter and focal point. The need for positive representation in all aspects of life is essential to solidifying the upcoming generations' acceptance and love of their individuality.  My work explores the Black experience, essence, and the diversity within the Black Diaspora. My artwork is an ever changing visual diary of my self love and acceptance, my trials and tribulations, my growth.
