Dick Gregory: A Study in Resolve
24 × 30 in • Oil on Canvas

Comedian. Activist. Truth-teller.

This portrait is paired with a 1966 interview soundbite where Dick Gregory reminds us: humor can open minds—but real change takes real work.

SWEET
Oil on Canvas • 30 in × 36 in
SOLD 🔴

A quiet moment of love, captured in oil.

Inspired by “Sweet” by Tyler, The Creator, this piece explores the feeling of falling for someone before you even realize what’s happening—when a look, a moment, or a presence shifts the whole atmosphere around you.

This original painting also includes an immersive animation experience, accessible to the collector through a private QR code, allowing the story behind the canvas to unfold in another dimension.

Grateful this piece has found its home. ❤️

February 6, 2026.

I received a Certificate of Achievement from the Erie County Legislature, presented by Legislator Lawrence Dupre at the King Urban Life Center an honor rooted in community, service, and legacy. What makes this moment sacred is the timing.

I was nominated for the East Side Excellence Awards on December 18, 2025 — my mother’s birthday.
So this recognition doesn’t belong to me alone.

It belongs to the woman who taught me how to stand upright in the world.
Who modeled resilience before I had language for it.
Who showed me that purpose isn’t announced it’s lived, daily, often quietly.
This award is for her.
For the sacrifices that never made headlines.

For the love that shaped my compass long before my work found visibility.
Deep gratitude to Ms. Deirdre for seeing me, believing in my work, and nominating me. Being witnessed like that especially by someone grounded in community is a powerful thing.
Recognition is not the destination.
It’s a pause. A breath. A moment to remember why we do the work.

Then we continue.
Always forward.
Always rooted.

Honored to be part of the World Public Art Conference at the United Nations joining leading artists, dignitaries, scholars, and cultural leaders from around the globe in shaping the future of public art.

My research, “Our Place, Our Purpose: Intergenerational Mural-Making as Public Pedagogy for Belonging, Imagination, and Cultural Preservation,” will be published in 2026 and was part of the conference proceedings. Sharing this work reaffirmed the power of youth-centered placemaking, ecological awareness, and intergenerational storytelling.

Grateful for the dialogue, inspired by the global community, and motivated to keep creating work that fosters belonging, imagination, and cultural preservation.

“Nude.”
Once defined by lexicons as “the color of Caucasian flesh.”

Language framed perception, and perception, in turn, framed beauty.

Here pigment collapses on itself, devouring its own hierarchy. White, raw sienna, and yellow ochre blur and fuse until meaning dissolves.
The surface trembles. The body disappears.

What remains is the residue of seeing — an afterimage of history still clinging to the skin.
Perhaps “nude” was never a color, only an agreement about who was allowed to be seen.
Look closely.

Your eye is not neutral.

Let the language speak. Let the image remember.

Unveiled Echoes | The Buffalo Club

Last night I shared Unveiled Echoes — an immersive reconstruction of Buffalo’s untold histories — at The Buffalo Club, honoring 200 years of the Erie Canal.

Through art and AR, I revisited the stories of immigrants, African Americans, and visionaries whose labor shaped the soul of this city.

Grateful to the Buffalo Club Art Committee and curator Anthony Greco.

Shared the moment with a special few. The echoes continue. 👁️
