PSA: Breathe and Pray (Qtip song playing while ur reading). To know me during my New York years, when I first started this journey... oh what a special time in my life. It was art first... all the time. I was naive, bubbly-eyed, a dreamer. I had to grow tho and pay my dues- financially, emotionally, intellectually. But I stayed true to the path even while taking the back roads. Now its Creative Shields full time. Yall ready? So what to expect- murals, coloring books, illustrations, paintings? Of course. Travel? Send me an invite. I'll pull up domestic and international. Am I selling artwork? Sure, but you probably gotta come to the studio so we can talk about it. Commissions will be open eventually. How can my art and experiences be of service to the community? I got some ideas but I want to hear from you. Lets keep making an impact for the better. Real talk thank you for all the enouragement and support. Its go time. 📸 by my talented sister @_renrut_ in front of my 'Breathe & Pray' mural in West Oakland. #CreatosGoneCreate #StarvingArtistRevenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CPtvNk7hkx_/?utm_medium=tumblr

For those that know me... know the impact Doom has had on my life. He's the reason I love Anita Baker so much and a huge inspiration for turning inward and dissapearing behind my art. The countless one liners and references I share with the homies... crazy. The composition of his albums remind me of listening to audio books on road trips with my family as a kid. College, starving artist years, international travels... all with Doom. The soundtrack to my journey. My 'Petal Block Doom' piece pays homage to the Operation Doomsday album. Digital print on 18x24" wrapped canvas. $400 Gold Framed print, 11x14" on paper $250, no frame $120. #creatorsgonecreate https://www.instagram.com/p/CNDXr3WBadE/?igshid=jgb4eaxaa38f

This is my favorite activity from the Women of The Black Panther Party Activity Book. Its so made up and hella random; perfect for the imagination. Its probably good for the psyche to color and design such an uplifting message- "Black is Beautiful". As a coloring book engineer my goal in designing activities is to leave as much room for the imagination as possible. I like to provide minimal structure and more opportunities for the user's discovery.

“Right now black lives matter. Trans lives matter. We doing this for every Black person. At the end of the day I can’t take my fuckin skin color off. I cannot mask this shit. I am profiled whether I like it or not. So guess what. I’m a die about it. I’m a die about my fuckin skin. You cannot take my fuckin blackness away from me. My blackness is not for your fuckin consumption nigga. It’s okay to be angry. Use wisdom. Don’t move stupidly and get yourself hurt. We all in this together.” -Paraphrased speech from a Oluwatoyin Salau, a BLM who was murdered this summer. Preciate you sis. Rest in power. #happybirthday #protectblackwomen #sayhername #creatorsgonecreate https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZ1ce_Bgtz/?igshid=1xbxigcn8fsq2

One of my latest pieces on the old 99 cent store across from the West Oakland BART. I wish for peace of mind to everyone going through it, cause I know we all are in some capacity. This mural was inspired by @jahm.il work in the community as a health professional and doctor to be. Shoutout out to all public health practictioners working with and healing our communities. We making healthy, conscious, decisions on a daily- drinking more water, breathing, and praying. #creatorsgonecreate #blackhealth #breathe #meditate #pray #getcentered https://www.instagram.com/p/CCXWw9CBnB-/?igshid=1c3seytfe0s2v
Cant front. I aint never celebrated Juneteenth before. Never felt completely free either. Still tho, probably top 5 holiday of all time. The Lake was hella trippy with everyone wearing masks, but it was good for the soul to charge up on the positive vibrations. Here are some photos of kinfolk who I gave a free art prints to. #creatorsgonecreate #oakland #lakemerrit #juneteenth https://www.instagram.com/p/CBrqgANBdzf/?igshid=x2z3qxvziep

It was Fall 2019 PC (pre corona) and I found myself on the National Mall walking in a rainstorm. I had just left my favorite museum, the Hirshorn, and was headed to the African American Museum. I heard all the hype, but I had to see for myself. Real talk... I was not dissapointed. Upon entry I skipped the bottom levels because... well slavery, and went straight to the top. I needed to keep my spirits high. I was blown away The artifacts, art, living history! Its wild. Then I stumbled upon Garrett Morgan's display. I saw the original gas mask and it was like seeing the future in the past. It was on some Sankofa Technology Afrofuturism type ish. How many answers to our future lay in the technology of the past? Black people suffering the most from Coronavirus and are in greatest need of breathing devices. Ironic. Anyways, this a tribute piece to Garrett Morgan and all the other great inventors of the past. I was even motivated to do an updated version that had more of my color palette style. Much appreciation to the African American Museum as well. Im going back when we get off lockdown. #illustration #procreate #blackhistory #afrofuturism #garrettmorgan #africanamericanmuseum #coronavirus #breathe #creatorsgonecreate https://www.instagram.com/p/B-tJ3H0h5bT/?igshid=1oc38bo3jsf82
