About Me
I am a Nashville native, but call the Caribbean home. I am an artist and educator, and look to inspire others in my practice. I love volunteering with youth and mentoring young adults. I currently live in Nashville, and teach as an assistant professor in the Art & Design Department at Tennessee State University.
My works summons the history and memories of my subjects. Through portrait paintings they are free to tell their own stories.
At the center of my work are ideas of identity, memory, and belonging. They are inseparable and undeniable in shaping who we are.
We are often moved and motivated by our dreams yet confronted by our realities. Through figurative work and layered landscapes of color and form, we confront ourselves, what we perceive and what is unknown.
This is Life in Color.
