 Yet to get along.
A piece that uses the oldest of our collective faith in the symbolism of an African woman with tattoos on her face to the most recent of religions, Islam that seems to have a disconnection to Africa Roots. The contrast of the hard and cold, to the soft and mud like texture of her face, as is his posture, being rigid and unemotional connect the abstract to modern issues and thoughts.. He has eyes but they do not see her. In some ways it is a commentary to how Islam in Africa has a serious issue with indigenous beliefs and tribes. The constant conflict is evidence that we have “yet to get along.” This piece is the intro into the next series that deal with African suffrage and freedom. 12″x16″ Indian Ink and Acrylic. 300.00

Music is freedom.
Music is Freedom

This piece is part of a three part series focusing on freedom in the midst of oppression. Using many shades of blues and browns, the loneliness and pain is eased only by a stereo. Where naked, alone in chains, is just the surface of a rich coat of music that helps most of us cope every day. The importance that the arts play in an isolated society is the importance of a key to a prison door. Slight influence from Miles Davis, Kinda Blue.

Painting is Freedom.
Set in a mud like prison, in the day time, the space and emptiness represents potential. While the man represents the
Black Nation, strong and in our prime, still chained and if we get tired or let our head down we will strangle ourself. The Focus on the brush is the focus on freedom.

In the last of the series, We have the a straightjacket on the Dread Locked Ras.

 Sudan.
This is a piece about the odd life that many are in within Africa and in the Sudan specifically. Tied in a world where tradition has both betrayed and saved us, we are introduced to the west, and whether we like it or not, they have intruded and we are wearing the results of a modern western legacy. To who made the borders, to who makes the weapons, We live in two worlds, loosing power in both as we adapt. Pencil, 11″x17″ 450.00

“Mud Crystals” New abstract piece.

FullSizeRender-3

One of the most enjoyable pieces so far, in this abstract event.  In the quest to find new artistic frontiers that are not hallow, I have been exploring many introspective topics.  As I mix metals and ink, new tones of purple copper and yellow green bronze start the journey. A marble dimension and portal awaits where there is an unfolding of possibility and where limitations dissolve. I started to wonder where I was going, and the answer seemed to come up from the mud. A new Crystal coming to form that are steps into the next phase. A reality where fantasy and fiction seemed to absolute. The Mud Crystals developed into stairs and a peak, inviting all to join, as we fly into a new world.
