I came across a mini cotton bale at a second hand store with the tag souvenir. I felt dirty doing it, but I had to buy it. It sent me down a dark path of American History, reading multiple books, studying slave spirituals, and reading first hand accounts of slaves - an excerpt of one such account is inscribed in the background of the piece. The making of this piece had a profound effect on me and came at a time when our country was experiencing increasing racism and violence. This is not an uplifting piece of art. It is a reminder of where we have been, who we are, and hope for a better future.

Art is an escape from the confines of the unyielding responsibilities of my vocation. My profession is incredibly rewarding but equally stressful - there is no margin for error, no experimentation, no spontaneity. In my studio, however, experimentation, creativity, and fortuitous accidents are welcome and commonplace. Paint, charcoal, paper, and ink are applied to the canvas, often using only my hands as instruments. The goal of my work is communication, whether it is a portrait of an influential person, a graceful figure, or a provocative word. Each image has something to say, and I take the utmost joy in sharing my work with people who appreciate the message.
