Our show has been added to the Black Art in America Calendar of Events! Check it out and then its your turn... mark your calendar and see you there!

I've started my next painting to include in my Hair Series. The title for this piece is still a work in progress because the one I have for it now is too long, "I am not my 'Fro but my 'Fro is part of Me". Who knows? It may stick. 

Here are snapshots of my process so far...

The final preparations are coming along for our show next month! So far 16 artists are in the show and we have sponsors lining up to contribute to the opening event! Check out the blog and stay up to date with announcements about the show and related events! Mark your calendars!

Don't forget to attend the opening reception at the Hennepin Gallery in the Minneapolis Government Center tonight! Its open to the public from 6-8pm. My paintings and other work from the artists in my artist group are being exhibited this month in honor of Black History Month. Hope to see you!

I was going through some of my back-up files today trying to find images for my website (working on that as we speak) and I came across these pics taken of me doing a portrait demo at Utrecht Art Supplies store in Minneapolis. I've done these before usually drawing a customer's face but this time it was a self portrait. 

Oakdale Patch Article
Here is an article about the mural I worked on in Oakdale, MN over the summer! 

I'm getting really excited for our show FADE2BLAQ in March! Not only for the local artists that have accepted our invitation to exhibit and sell but for a chance for me to get some of my ideas on canvas! I will be continuing to add more pieces to my "Hair" series and starting to paint a new body of work.
