An addition to the Parliament series! This particular canvas has entered its third major shift over the past 2-3 years. I believe this is the final shift. A desire for liberty has pushed me in this direction. Away with sources for now—pure emotional and imaginative bliss! #blacksky #artsky #artist

Rethinking/Restructuring this piece (again….😒🙄) #blacksky #artist

My painting "Residence of the Evermores" has just been acquired by a private collector. I'm very excited about this! This work was one of my sabbatical year experiments--I love the figure in gray-scale ❤️💛🧡 #blacksky #artsky #artist

This past September, I traveled to Arizona (never been!) to the home of a fellow Alpha 🤙🏾 brother who collected my artwork, to celebrate his birthday with family and friends. It was so dope to see my painting installed in his beautiful home! #aphia #artcollector #imo #blueart

What a blessed time it has been! I try not to take these gifts of time, talent, and opportunity lightly. I'm very grateful to all of you who keep me in your prayers and root for success on my journey. I hope that I am also adding something wonderful to your lives in return. #artist #artlife

According to #SpotifyWrapped II Hands II Heaven had quite an impact on my life this year 😂😭 LISTEN—It’s a damn good song 😤

Wassup Artists! I’m thrilled to be part of the Bluesky Art Community! Always looking to connect and grow with fellow creatives. Here’s some of my art:

Well, well, well...Look who's back on a meal-prep program, just in time for the holidays 😭😭😭 I'm now working with a certified trainer who has competed in numerous natural body building competitions (and won 💪🏾). I've never worked my body this hard in my life 😭😭😭

📢📢📢 Say it again, for the people in the back 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

38 seconds of work on the Douglass portrait. This past March, I experienced the tremendous honor of having my portrait of Frederick Douglass installed permanently at the historic Mechanics Hall in Worcester, Massachusetts. This commission was a wonderful and life changing project for me. #blacksky

I plan to complete this large drawing in 2025. I’ve been hovering over it for a few years, now. It’s a work that addresses introspection and internal dialogues through self-portraiture. I don’t intend on adding color to this work. It is strong as a linear black/white drawing #blacksky #artsky #art

Studio Ramblings. I’m having issues with this piece 🙄 #art #studioramblings #studioimeh

I’m working on new pieces for two upcoming solo exhibitions in 2025, one in DC, and another in NYC. One of my issues when I create is deciding the degree to which each work should be a drawing vs a painting. With these two, I’m leaning heavily into my strengths in drawing. #art #artist

A developing painting. #art #artist
