Statement:

Ebony Sons Rising honors our black men, their struggles living in America and their enduring strength and resolve to rise.  This piece follows one of my studio tenets which is –
 
BENEVOLENCE
Webster’s dictionary defines benevolence as “the quality of being well meaning; kindness.”  
I aim to create art primarily to promote awareness and enlightenment of mankind.
 
While my artistic voice has historically been abstract, I realize that stories need to be told, candles need to be held up and lights need to shine.  To that end, I continue to strive in letting my unique light shine to tell the stories that enlighten and uplift mankind.
