  Eat a Bullfrog

  Eat a Bullfrog (2025) merges two potent archetypes—the bull and the frog—into a single mythic creature. The bull, symbol of power and virility, and the frog, emblem of transformation and rain, meet in a luminous body that pulses between masculine and amphibian, earth and water. Its posture echoes the sensual geometries of the Kama Sutra, suggesting balance between desire and meditation. Rendered in tropical gradients of coral, jade, and gold, the figure embodies the hybrid spirit of Indo-Caribbean culture, where Indian, African, and Taíno mythologies intertwine. The work re-imagines the creature as a cosmic mediator, linking fertility to consciousness, ritual to instinct. In its still gaze and poised form, The Bull-Frog Sutra asks how sensuality and spirituality coexist—and whether creation itself begins in the shared pulse of animal and human breath.

  We Were Animals Once

  We Were Animals Once (2025). This is a piece that envisions the layered realities of memory, culture, and place. Animals are our first toys (at least for some of us children of the 80’s) and memories of these tiny plastic tokens in the shape of animals that at that age we consider dangerous, but in playtime they become our friends. In the process they shape our personality into being separate from the animal, and denying or failing to see we are also animals. Because we are tiny  we are larger and in control of the animal now shrunk into a toy. This piece reflects directly on the sense Beneath a vast moon that glows like a cosmic guardian, toy animals and a child’s doll gather before the skyline of Queens, New York. A parrot—emblem of migration and survival—watches over this surreal assembly, carrying Caribbean memory into the urban landscape. The painting bridges the intimacy of childhood with the complexity of adult identity, recalling a time when small plastic animals became our first companions. Through play, we learned dominance and tenderness, forgetting that we too are animals. The layered composition—part dream, part recollection—merges nostalgia, diaspora, and ecological awareness. The toys, both fragile and eternal, speak to the persistence of imagination, the separation from innocence, and the universality of play. In the end, the work reminds us that our earliest understanding of kinship began with creatures, real and imagined, who continue to shape the stories of who we are. Childhood never leaves us, yet we become separate from it as adults. But in the end, as in the beginning, we all play with the same toys.

  Caribbean Birds

  Caribbean Birds (2020) Is a digital painting that depicts a vibrant, abstract scene with a focus on stylized birds amidst a colorful, dynamic background. The birds are depicted in a fluid, artistic manner with exaggerated features and vivid colors. I decided to use primary colors in the image to achieve warm oranges, reds, and yellows, contrasted by cooler greens and blues.

  The style is reminiscent of a modern, abstract painting with a blend of surrealism. The use of sweeping, curvilinear lines and organic shapes gives the composition a sense of movement and liveliness. The background features a mix of soft, blended colors and sharp, defined lines, adding depth and complexity to the overall piece. The image evokes a sense of freedom and natural beauty, captured through an imaginative and artistic lens.

  Dimensions: 36 in x 48 in, custom sized.
