” Everyone doesn’t think so however I’m in with the bunch who agrees that Dame Dash has played a crucial role in the entertainment business. The game has may aspects that the average person usually isn’t aware of and those who attempt to make these various aspects known to the public are silenced. It is Dames attitude that I wanted to capture because I know that it is the right attitude to have. The attitude of want your own, have your own, build your own is easily mistaken today for selfishness however what about self-preservation?”

Candace Owens

#2 of 10 / watercolor painting / 9in x 12in / $500

Candace Owens is a well-known conservative commentator and political activist. She is known for her outspoken views on various social and political issues, often sparking debate and controversy. Owens is also the founder of the BLEXIT movement, which encourages African Americans to leave the Democratic Party and join the Republican Party. She frequently appears on news programs and social media to share her perspectives and engage with her followers.

“The word Black is interesting in the way that it is used today especially when we consider how it is used to describe a group of people in place of their nationality. You can hear it commonly whispered among the autochthonous that Candace Owens isn’t really black however I would ask who is? I painted Candace with a desire to include her amongst “The Blacks”. I am not using the term black here to indicate the many who may be of the inner city or lower vibrational mindsets. I am instead using the term to represent the many of us who actively strive to maintain highness.”

However, it is these very challenges that push champions to be their best selves and achieve greatness. This painting captures a moment after all the hard work pays off.”

I created these pieces below between the year 2023 and 2024.My goal was to fill a book with ink drawings in order to strengthen my drawing skills and my ability to work with negative space. I encouraged myself to draw whatever I saw or whatever was near until the book was filled. Just recently I reached the last pages of my mixed media pad and here you can see 18 of the best compositions.
