Base imagery from a series that exists as a collaborative effort between three queer black men. Looking back over these I see the importance of visual representation for queer black men and even more so of collaboration. I loved working and laughing with my brothers @arwhite7 and @flylocke #ervinajohnson #blackart #blavity #afropunk #africanart #photooftheday #photographer #blacktumblr #blacktwitter #fineart #gay #pride https://www.instagram.com/p/B_3WDF3p4Hu/?igshid=1jz9d2yt0km3

This throwback Thursday is dedicated to manifesting my dreams. It’s nice to look back at what you’ve accomplished. I hardly ever give myself credit for going after exactly what folk said was impossible. And to be clear it’s only just the beginning sweetie. 😊 #tbt #ervinajohnson https://www.instagram.com/p/B1eq9V3h5Et/?igshid=73ys1v4kkyt1

Sharing because this is my art too. Queer black love is important. The healthy kind. #ervinajohnson https://www.instagram.com/p/B1a3jl2hvTh/?igshid=9sz1p9v7dnfr

Throwback Thursday is dedicated to my self portraits taken in my studio. They serve as nice time stamps. It’s time for a new one soon. #tbt #ervinajohnson https://www.instagram.com/p/B0oF4vQBR_T/?igshid=xzeelwi2j3ar

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you “Rudy”. The first mixed media portrait ever made for my ongoing series, #InHonor. The work honors blackness in all its unyielding and multifaceted glory.
