Still Power captures strength through calm presence rather than force. The lion’s steady gaze and flowing layers of color reflect authority rooted in awareness, patience, and self control. Movement lives in the brushwork, but the energy remains grounded, reminding us that true power does not need to announce itself.

"I trained probably, two weeks or three weeks for this for this fight. I had to bury my best friend, and I dedicate this fight—I wasn't going to fight—I dedicate this fight to him. I was gonna rip his heart out, I'm the best ever. I'm the most brutal and vicious and most ruthless champion there's ever been, there's no one can stop me. Lennox is a conqueror? No, I'm Alexander—he's no Alexander. I'm the best ever. There's never been anybody as ruthless. I'm Sonny Liston, I'm Jack Dempsey, there's no one like—I'm from their cloth. There's no one that can match me. My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious. I want your heart, I want to eat his children. Praise be to Allah." -Mike Tyson

Basquiat is a tribute to a creative force who broke rules and built his own language. His work was loud, layered, and honest—just like this piece. Fun fact: Before his rise to fame, he signed his early graffiti as “SAMO,” short for “same old shit,” leaving poetic phrases around New York that sparked an entire art movement.

This work came from a period I call my paint slinging era. I wasn’t brushing—I was throwing. Pouring. Slinging paint until it felt right. Each piece is layered with over 30 different paints, building heavy textures and raw movement. Some sections are so thick with paint they almost sculpt themselves—evidence of how physical the process was.
Bayou Brass was painted live at Moore Square Park in downtown Raleigh during Jazz in the Park, but it’s rooted in New Orleans. That city’s music, color, and chaos were in my head the whole time. The painting moves like a brass band—wild, loud, full of rhythm and life. It’s jazz you can see.
This was not just painted—it was performed.

Painted in the pulse of Los Angeles, this piece is a tribute to sound in motion. The trumpet—rendered in explosive color—feels like it’s mid-note, bursting through layered textures of purples, reds, and golds. Each stroke moves like music: urgent, bold, and full of improvisation.
The hands gripping the horn are steady, almost reverent, holding space for something greater than the instrument itself. Musical symbols swirl in the background like echoes from a smoky club in the heart of the city.
