Artist Statement

I work with both Male and Female African figures. I easily express myself more with the African skin because of the richness, beauty, and uniqueness of the African skin, Africans are not just dark, the skin has different values when coming to painting. I see to make people understand in my paintings that African skin is beautiful, rich, and unique and it goes beyond just giving it a black color.
