Yeyo Digital and acrylic on paper 2012 ---- One of my faves from the archive. It set the stage for how I see & envision my paintings. Embodied, archetypal, ancestral, futurist, jewel tones anchored in the dust and browns of the earth, mythological. Inspired by Erkyah Badu's Yeyo (and mom trauma lol)

welcome to all who are gathered in following. not the most adept of Internet users but I'll try to share things I like / find and all keep u up to date with what I work on. enjoy being alive!

the general tone of global leadership seems more slippery, and 'off' than it has ever been. or maybe it's social media exposures letting us see just how bad we've always had it with men in power.
