Why Creativity is A Form Of Self Care
The Symbolic Language in My Paintings
Color is the most powerful storytellers in my work. Long before a viewer understands the details of a portrait, they feel the emotion carried in the palette. Colors speaks directly to the spirit - they set the tone, shape the mood, and reveal the inner world of the woman I am painting.
The Power Of Being Seen: Why I Paint African American Women
“The Skin I Am In – Chosen reflects my mission to honor the beauty, strength, and sacred visibility of African American women. Her ebony complexion, textured hair, and vibrant blue garment stand boldly against an earth‑toned glow, reminding us that Black women deserve to be seen in their fullness. She embodies the dignity, cultural depth, and quiet power I paint to reclaim and celebrate.”**
The Role of Art in Healing and Empowerment
Art has always been more that color, canvas, and composition for me, it is a living language. A I oftenremind myself, “Allow art to speak to you because it has already spoken to the artist.'‘
I am always deeply moved when someone stands before one of my paintings and begins to cry. That emotional release tells me the artwork has done what it was meant to do. It has reached them. It has touched a place inside that words cannot always reach.
