The Weight of Holding | Africa Curated

When you're unique and not afraid to show it, people will come to you for what you do uniquely. I am a visual self-taught artist who is inspired by life and its many nuances. Art has been a part of me my entire life and is who I am. I seek to express my visions to those who appreciate my world. My art is not for me to interpret to you, but is how you interpret my art. Growing up on the South Side of Chicago, and currently residing in Atlanta, GA for the last 21 years, I took to art at a very young age. My dream was to be a cartoonist. The colors, the shapes and the fun were what I was attracted to. Currently, my art resides at collections at my Gallery; Gallery Anderson Smith in Buckhead & Peachtree Corners as well as Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Fellaship ATL as well as with Cam Newton and Clifford "T.I." Harris, to name a few. If I were, to sum up who I am and my style it would be … Abstract expression conceptualizing the beauty and the chaos in life!
