Piece description from the artist
This pixelated portrait of tennis legend Arthur Ashe captures the essence of a true trailblazer. Ashe's unwavering commitment to justice and equality, both on and off the court, continues to inspire generations today. The bright, bold colors used in this composition reflect Ashe's charismatic personality, while the pixelated style nods to the technological age in which he lived and competed. This print is a celebration of Ashe's life and achievements, and a testament to his enduring legacy.
I paint New York City's wild edges – the parks, waterways, and forgotten green spaces where nature persists despite urban pressure.
Based in the Bronx, I'm currently exploring Van Cortlandt Park, one of NYC's largest and wildest parks. My work captures these landscapes in oil, focusing on the moments when light, water, and seasons transform familiar places into something unexpected.
I studied at Carnegie Mellon (BFA) and in England (MA in Arts and Ecology). My paintings are in private collections internationally.
