 "Recently in an interview I was asked about the trend "Afrofuturism" and the development of AI in generating visual images based on harvested images and text based prompts or inputs. I welcome them both. They give folks pathways of appreciation into the core of my decades of dedicated practice." 


"Flight" 1975 Acrylics and glitter 40" X 20". Loss to a studio fire in 2001.

IE: Rhythmism as a Future-Primitif approach to the visual arts. Since the early '70s."


"Back then orthodox Art Directors in advertising and publishing, narrow minded gallery directors and over-contolling arts educators would say folks were not ready for what I was doing or that I was ahead of my time. Followed by their position that an artist could not name a movement or genre! 

Those were the daze!"


"Femme Chat" Prismacolor pencils on 18" X 12" Vellum. Circa 1978
