View Complete Biography below gallery.
Born
in Jamaica and educated in
the United States, this self taught artist has developed a distinctive
painting
style that combines refined drawing lines with oil and oil pastels to
present
figures in abstract. Influenced
by his travels,
his subject matters relate to everyday people and events. Each painting
tells
its own story, sometimes multiple stories, when viewed carefully.
His evocative imagery often
exudes seduction
with an urban edge. A
custom designed,
hand-made frame, (created by the artist), compliments each painting. He is also known for his eclectic
furniture design. He
combines artwork
with unique functional sculptured wood pieces.
His use of exotic
woods with
natural designs enhances his work.
