Emperor Haile Selassie I and the Tree on Wood : Acrylic and Indian ink
Empress Menen Asfaw : Acrylic and Indian ink
Ethiopian Eve. Small. Acrylic
This is a piece that I have enjoyed making before, and making small updates or changes. This is the mini version of Ethiopian Evening. Acrylic 20×16″. The piece highlights that even in total unity we still are one of kind. This is highlighted by the man in the center, wearing jeans and blue shirt with a red gold and green beanie.
Emperor Haile Selassie I and President Nassar in Egypt. : Acrylic and Indian ink
The Emperor in The Garden. : Acrylic and Indian ink
How good it is to start the day with a mediation of simple goodness. Micah 6:8 “He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you, But to do justly,
To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God.”
Brand New piece of His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Haile Selassie I, Conquering Lion of Judah. This is based on the last known photo of HIM and invoked lots of emotions. One is that the sun isn’t setting, neither does His Reign End. That this Garden was more of a place of peace and family, not a place of recluse or arrest. His Majesty is the brightness and solemness of the Garden and it is an expression of His Life. The feeling was more important than detail, and movement was focused on through using impressionism.
The King of Kings lives up to His Title, by being humble in times of adversity, one who taught to us to love mercy and fought for Justice for all Mankind. Glorify and Praise that which is Good. Rastafari. Prints are available, inbox if interested.
Thank You Justyn for commissioning the piece and having a great moment and glimpse worthy of remembering. Egziabeher Yemasagan
The Soul of the Church : Acrylic and Indian ink
The Living Church is the Living Body, The Temple of the Most High. The Cross is the world, the world that we are in but not of. We have risen from worldly ways of control and power, we are a walking resurrection. Like the Church in background, there is space that goes through, like how everyone will carry their own cross whether they asked for it or not.
King Selassie I and the Tree. : Acrylic and Indian ink
Ethiopian Presence : Acrylic
Kool Elephant : Acrylic and Indian ink
” Girl Walking Down Stairs.” : Acrylic and Indian ink
12×18″ ” Shadow Priest” acrylic. A piece about Ethiopian Priests in quiet meditations. Wanted to capture the feeling of sunlight and contrast, with a simple sky. All of which allows the stillness and contemplation of the priest reading to be felt.
This piece is symbolic of the way elephants protect family and the adaptation of new situations. Liken to how a blind man will describe an elephant differently based on where he is standing, so we must realize there can be many truths that exist at once. This will allow us to end tribalistic thinking that declares one version of history the only history accepted.
Once Again, Give thanks for the Mighty Life Giver, Who Rules in the Heart of All Flesh. In this time, to be able to express through art and life, the Ivine King within ALL that is evident in the personage of The King of Kings is the Highest Honor a person can share. We do know that the Word in the Scriptures has been upheld in that His Face does Shine upon Us, All the Days of Our Lives. To be a witness is to behold, The Conquering Lion of Judah has Prevailed. Forever we do give thanks and praise. Qedamawi Atse Haile Selassie First. Jah Rastafari.
Sizzla Kalonji / Ras Elijah Tafari Art Series. First Five!

It was evening, and there was a diversity of people in Judgement yard. I was taken back by a child that was watching Miguel and Chaz together drumming and on the guitar, with Dre-Z Melodi peering in back. All those around can see when music is a central point of being, a perfect place. Everyone seemed to be in a perfect place, and so it seemed perfect to do some sketches and take some photos and be able to reflect and meditate on it. I like the sketch with a little ink, it seemed to capture the ease and casualness of being in harmony. Click here for a print: http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/miguel-and-chaz/
One of the joys was to do a mural in Sizzla’s Living Room at his compound in Judgement Yard. Lots of experiences on the stairs and with his nephew who helped do some of the painting too. It was a piece of Africa with a tear where the Nile River is on the face of a lion. The energy of the living room and the patio had a certain radiance when the sun hit. The color and hours spent watching the gradual changes made it worthy to try and recreate. I can feel the morning, and the excitement of the day, amongst the children of Jah.

Using a different palette and technique to try and add a uniqueness to Jamaica air, trees and earth, this piece is a tribute to Miguel’s love of things to come and traditions of old. From the Tabernacle, which is not heavily decorated to the contrast of the torn jeans and perfect tie and shirt, told a story of a work and person in progress. A place where the spirit and Foundation can sing itself into any place Jah sees fit. A place where the man is there for the world to see rather than hidden in the Tabernacle. click to get a print: http://blog.raselijah.com/shop/products/miguels-guitar/
Album cover of the Grammy nominated reggae artist Sizzla Kalonji. In this piece Sizzla described exactly what he wanted in detail. The appearance to make it look like it was done quickly was part of the intention. In true art, the flow and vibe is more important than making it photographic. The raw and aggressive lines, and the clear message carries an impact the sublime does not. It is meant to hit the viewer. This included the letters, which are all hand done. He wanted it to feel Rastafari, and also show real street letters that ones could read and are true to form. Something we could see on a wall and smile. I was very pleased listening to the album and that the art and the album also flowed, it was a work of art in perfect balance, clear and upfull. Raspect.

Now out! check out the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TijDPNFsGQw
InI wanted to make mention of those who should be acknowledged as we are inspired by their works, and that by their work that we can inspire others. When InI got the call from Jah Solid Rock Music I was honored to be included on this project and I loved the idea that came from the company. Many of us have a great joy and memory of iconic comics and covers, and he wanted I to make Jamaican super heroes to replace the iconic comic cover of Captain America and Falcon on Captain America issue 193. I thought it was cool and fitting for a blast from the past, legend Coxone Lloyd in an epic Trilogy Record burning Babylon down with his team of hero musicians! In that, I wanted and remember and acknowledge Jack Kirby, profound and iconic creative influence in many lives. He penciled and wrote that issue, and I tried to follow in his line work exactly as well as the colors on the original. The entire piece wasn’t included on the album cover, and the traditional manner of honoring the artist before was not seen. I wanted to honor the man right away, and give thanks for his inspiration and all those who made Captain America such a power figure in the imagination. In the comic world, we write “after” when we are doing a different version of a previous cover. I wanted to share the original and full piece, and a say humbly that this piece is after the Great Jack Kirby. Respect. 1917-1994…and still going. Big Up Jah Solid Rock Music, Ras Teo, Tuff Gong, and everyone involved and included. It will be epic because it will be ” SIR COXSONE CHAMPION SOUND!”
