Studio Time!

Today is my day off at Latin School of Chicago. I'm spending my time working on this commission painting.

ART SMART: Why is Black Art Hot Now? The Road to International Recognition.

I had an amazing time being a panelist at the Smart Museum of Art. The topic of "Why is Black Art Hot Now? was an interest and insightful discussion. I appreciate the words of wisdom from artist Amanda Williams and artist/galleriest Andre Guichard during the panel discussion today. I would like to thank Dan Parker for moderating the event and Diasporal Rhythms for the amazing opportunity.

Honorable Mention

I'm excited to get news that my painting "Cradling Cane II" received an honorable mention at the 83rd midyear show at the Butler Institute of American Art. I always enjoy seeing that amazing artwork at this exhibition, and I'm looking forward to seeing the catalog from the event.
