Riya

Hey everyone! Hope you're New Year is kicking off splendidly! This little firecracker is named Riya! My sweet friend Sonia, commissioned me to render her as a christmas gift! I of course said yes before evening seeing this enchanting face! How can I not burn Riya?!
Loved every minute of it! 

Burn Test

This is a  wood burning study of an awesome artist I meant about a little over a year ago. His name is Stephen Gardner and I promised him this a while ago. I think I have worked out a good amount of my problem areas so I will be starting the final soon, and he will soon have it...finally! :) until then, go visit him at sketchoftheday.blogspot.com! It'll be worth your while! Promise!

Something Pretty

                                           Who says beautiful things can't grow in the hood!!!

                                            Open your eyes! A little something is everywhere!

Hey There

I know, I know...where have I been?... A few places and back again! lol
My Bad!!! please forgive me, won't leave you all for so long again!
Hope you all have been well!

What have I been up to? Well...
I've done a few new works! I've also been part of a group show in Newark, NJ this past March celebrating Women's History month. It was held at One Gallery in the Gateway building. I got the chance to show with some amazing women and met some very interesting people with great feedback! Over all, things have been swell!

That's my work to the right! This is a series of works dedicated to single mother immigrants illustrating the jobs they took to support their families.

Sketch

So apparently, I'm pretty awful at blogging! on the other blog I take part in, we are doing a "sketch a day in May." I'm gonna try; they've been doing this for years and I've never given it a real shot. It's the 3rd day so I owe them two others.

here we go.....
