Production

 Decided to post a few paintings from yester-year as a segway into the new paintings.
Bling. 18x24. Acrylic on Canvas. 2007. $100

Bling was inspired by the idea that we should be more mindful of what we do. The connotations of imagery and portrayal say way more than we could say in defending such actions. Basically, a chain is a chain is a chain.




Black President. 16x20. Acrylic on Canvas. 2007.  SOLD




This was completed a while before Shepherd Fairey's Obama Print which i tend to point out, not to say i was the first to do it, mainly so i can say that this was not inspired by that. President Clinton was socially accepted by African Americans as being Black, as far as his actions were concerned, then came Obama and Clinton being our First Black President, wasn't so official anymore.
