About The Artwork
My intention was to show a picture that exists in real life but is not shown nearly enough in this society… an image of responsibility, an image of a sensitive, caring heart… a sense of protection for not only the next generation, but the next generation of little girls in particular, as they become women and cherish and respect the father figures in their life and his role in caring for their well being. I wanted to show physical images not always seen associated with young urban men. He doesn’t carry bling. His sneakers, cap or jacket have no name. He’s not driving a car… those things aren’t important to him. What is important to him is what he does carry, and what he’s cradling. And he’s not embarrassed nor ashamed of it… just tired from the tough responsibility. Pink is predominant but he embraces and cherishes it. His hoodie is golden like his sense of values. I chose those elements in the bag to show cleanliness with the hand-sanitizer, protection with the ointment, sustenance with the baby bottle and keys as a toy to make the baby smile… My goal is to let people see that these young men are out there too.

United States
Born and raised in Brooklyn, I grew up during a time when hip hop culture was just making it's way to the mainstream. With it came a burst of expressive freedom from an urban perspective... my perspective.My art represents the myriad spirit and emotion of urban life, with an emphasis on LIFE, as seen through my eyes, imagined in my mind and felt in my heart. That Life in my art is not limited to any one physical location, but expanded upon in an attempt to embrace a universal perspective.When I sit down to paint or draw, I try hard not to think with the idea of what one may consider acceptable, or what another may feel is appropriate. I just try to apply my artistic knowledge and experience to recreate whats in my mind, whether its through sheer imagination or direct and indirect experience. I do believe a colorful imagination, experience, knowledge and a mind open to receive more are principal in helping to nurture artistic growth, and that is what I try to apply in my work.
