Just an aspiring visual artist, archivist, and someone who hopes for a better world and a better humanity.
Here are four drawings that I have been making for the past few days. I have been following YouTube tutorials about creature design and I decided to draw along with them. The biggest challenge is allowing myself to draw loosely.

Here is my newest painting. This time instead of digital painting, I returned to my traditional roots. I call this one, "The Fate of Castles in the Sky". I used acrylic paints for the base, then I used oil paints, and then I used oil pastels and oil medium for the details.

A bit of a break from the madness in the country today. Here are two paintings that I made this week. The first is a field with mountains, and the second is the Triple Sun: inspired by my favorite series, The Dark Crystal.

My newest painting that I just finished today. It is a painting of a close friend of my family as well as my art mentor who helped me to get my first solo art show and helped expand my view of art and that of the Trenton Art world. On July 3, 2025, he passed away, RIP Larry Hilton.

Here are two of my newest paintings that I made last month. The one on the left is Evelyn Preer, the first Black stage and screen actress and jazz singer to earn celebrity and popularity in the late 1910s to the early 30s. The one on the right is my grandmother's friend.

I hope that this art piece is not too risqué. One of my friends asked me to make a painting of herself and me together. I made the piece and wanted to experiment to see if I could make the painting in a style evocative of Gustav Klimt. I think I succeeded.

Here is my newest painting everyone. I decided to make a painting and tribute to the African American writer, scholar and literary critic, Ralph Ellison. The quotes that I used in this painting are both from his most famous work, Invisible Man.

Something that I worked on two weeks ago for practice. It was inspired by Youpi's rage scene from the anime Hunter x Hunter.

This can pretty much explain where the mess in the country started.

For the month of November, I was bemoaning the election results and disgusted by what people chose due to ignorance, voter purges, voter suppression and the right wing's bullcrap. But even so, I still created my new painting. "Gilgamesh and Enkidu vs the Bull of Heaven".
