I am a self-taught portrait artist, driven by a profound inspiration found in the stories buried within each person I paint—the laughter etched in the wrinkles, the courage embedded in serious expressions, and the narratives that unfold in a pair of eyes. In a world increasingly desensitized to the human condition, I feel compelled to celebrate humanity, using my work as a positive platform to communicate a tapestry of emotions and personalities.

Through my paintings, I strive to honor individuality and capture the beauty and complexity that make each life unique. Art is my language, and I seek to evoke empathy and understanding, reminding us of our shared humanity. I have learned to trust my inner voice, allowing it to guide my visual expressions while celebrating the vibrant colors that reflect my Jamaican culture. These color choices convey the passion and inner strength of my subjects.

My body of artwork encapsulates the candid nature of women and children, conveying messages of optimism, positivity, and hope. I emphasize the intensity in my subjects' eyes, making them the focal point of each piece. This focus creates a bond between the viewer and the subject, evoking feelings of familiarity and endearment.

If I can elicit a sense of togetherness, warmth, or reflection in the hearts of those who engage with my work, then I feel I have honored my artistic mission. Each portrait is a journey into the soul of its subject, a celebration of their unique story, and a reminder of the shared human experience that connects us all.
