What do you aim to say by the themes in your work?
There are many themes in my art from race, religion, gender, and others, but I am looking to examine the placement of people in society and present a different narrative about them.
Where does your inspiration come from?
My inspiration comes from the examination of my life, through stories I've been told throughout my life, and through a lot of reading. I enjoy reading, especially historical books/narratives about African Americans.
How would you describe your creative process?
My process starts by coming up with an idea, once I have the idea, then I will look at art history to finding paintings that respond to my idea. After that, I will make multiple sketches and color studies before I start on the final painting.
What is integral to your work as an artist?
Reading and studying is integral to my work as an artist. I believe we must understand to past to better situate ourselves in the present and future.
Do you have any experiences that have impacted your art?
I am an African American male and I have experienced a good bit of trauma relating to race and the environment I grew up in. I use that and present it in my work.
What advice do you have for aspiring artists?
My advice would be to make from the soul instead of worrying about whether or not the piece will sell before it’s even finished. Make room for new adventures, they may open doors that you didn’t know existed. And last, please be kind to yourself!
