This Human's Work

This event involved working with District 3 Representative Joi Mayo and My Brother's Keeper of Charlotte to involve the Nation's Ford community in placemaking. 

This took place at Dupp & Swat in Camp North End, where we explored different mediums and the process of abstract illustration. 

This event featured a hands-on spray paint demo where high school students explored creative expression through street art techniques. 

This took place at the Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools Athletic Banquet, where I live painted a piece honoring student athletes in celebration of their achievements. 

At this community-centered event hosted by The Applesauce Group, I participated as a vendor and led an abstract illustration activation that invited attendees to contribute to a collaborative, playful art piece 

At this festival, I painted live alongside global cuisine and performances, adding a colorful visual experience to the Alley 51 International Food Festival. 

This activation at BOOM Festival invited attendees to experiment with abstract illustration, creating playful marks and patterns in a collaborative art experience. 

This exhibit included a group show, an engaging artist talk, and interactive coloring pages based on the participating artists’ work for visitors of all ages. 

This event marked the first time I presented digital artwork using a rolling TV display, featured during a group exhibit and local craft show. 

This collaboration took place at Su Casa’s monthly dance party, where fellow artist Derek and I painted live in rhythm with the music and crowd energy. 

This digital piece was created for Durag Fest, reflecting the iconic style and bold spirit of the late '90s and early 2000s hip hop era. 

This service project was done with Dove’s Nest, a women’s addiction recovery center here in Charlotte. The purpose was to provide an opportunity for the women to connect, express themselves vulnerably and artistically, and participate in art therapy.

This creative showcase was done with United Community School, a small charter in the University area. Students were prompted to "Tell a story about honesty, using a drawing, short story, and/or poem." All grades K-8 (general and special education) participated in this showcase. 

This Juneteenth celebration brought together and celebrated black voices, supporters, creators, and businesses.
