Crown Giclee Prints
Limited Edition of 200 12"x18" Giclee Print 19.75" x 25.75" Gold Ornate Frame with White Mat, Non-Glare Glass.
Crown represents the past rejection of natural Black beauty and natural hair. As Black people, we have evolved to resist white societal norms and have embraced our natural hair. However, our self acceptance, has been met with resistance from white dominant culture. While we have accepted and celebrate our natural hair, corporate and conservative environments discriminate against Black and African American hair styles.
On the print, the statistics state:
- Black women report being 80% more likely to change their hair from its natural state to fit in at the office.
- Black women are 50% more likely to be sent home or know of a Black woman sent home from the workplace because of her hair.
- In many places in the US it is legal to deny a person employment or admittance to school based on their hairstyle, even if the hair style is inherent to their cultural identity.
The CROWN Act movement's goal is to end race-based hair discrimination nationwide.

The Beautiful Series/ Beauty in Darkness
BlackMenAreFragile
After the murder of George Floyd, I painted a series of works that represents the holistic experience of Black men. It began with honoring Black men as kings and recognizing “heavy is the head that wears the crown”. Of the series, Black Men are Fragile is a mixed media work of art that embraces a man's need to be nurtured and the gentle side of their existence. In American society, Blck safety is imaginary and relentlessly attacked.
Black men are required to be strong. Seeing their friends, brothers, fathers, sons, nephews and uncles being murdered without consequence Black Men Are Fragile.
This work represents fragility, self soothing, isolation, and turning to self for healing. The image is both fully grown, but also takes shape as a fetus in the womb- the last place we have protection. We are adults, and we need protection, especially being Black in America. Throughout 2020, I craved to curl into myself, and go deep within myself. I was also scared to not come back. --
