Reflections of Childhood

My paintings of young African American children capture the profound journey of navigating emotions, identity, and society. Through each brushstroke, I seek to honor their resilience, their joy, and their boundless potential. These works are deeply personal, shaped by my experience as both an artist and a mother.

Art, for me, is more than a passion—it is a legacy. In pursuing my creative voice, I show my son the importance of following one’s dreams with conviction. My work stands as a testament to the power of self-expression and the lessons we pass down—not just through words, but through the lives we live. By embracing my story, I hope to inspire others to find strength in their own journeys and to celebrate the beauty of becoming.
