Thinking about the power of open space and the potential it leaves for marks to move freely. / Are You Serious #6, 2019
Color can come through experience. On a flight back from New York, I moved my hand from the tray table to lower the window shade. In that moment, with sun pouring through the window, I saw my hand transform to a neon, almost fiery cadmium color. It was glowing as I slowly moved the shade. I saw I could manipulate and control that color.
Sunday I had the honor of attending the grand opening of a new community center in West Oakland with @urbanlifementors + @nycthrive. The center is conveniently located across the street from an Oakland Public school with the goal to create opportunity through the arts and nurturing leadership development for youth. It’s encouraging to witness @clorox step in to support this initiative with their What Comes Next Project- It’s one thing to help clean up a space, and it’s another to think about the bigger picture and support a thriving future of the community. #WhatComesNextProject #sponsored
Alone with my paintings on this Sunday evening. / work in progress
Right or left?
Currently sprawled across my dirty concrete floors facing the fan. Despite the heat, my paintings are evolving and I even finished a few big ones today. I can’t wait to share what I’m working towards in just a few more days.
Work in progress. Paint containers for scale. 💧
