Terrance Strikes a Pose on Lafitte Street

2018

This character is based on an old Vivian Maier photograph but feels timeless to me. His proud stance appears incorruptible against the rusting, graffiti-covered background which is a photo of a building in Mid City near my studio.

I was born and raised in New Orleans, and at a young age I took interest in local art and culture. Leaving behind engineering scholarships at 19 to fully pursue my art interests, I soon booked my first exhibit in New Orleans showing colored-pencil sketches based on studies of Degas' dancers.

After these Degas' studies and many others of great artists, I began pursuing a new, self-taught method that formed into the sculptural-painting and collage techniques I use today. My works using these techniques have been shown in New York, New Orleans, and Oklahoma City galleries.
