This piece explores the theme of black womanhood, Identity, dignity, self possession and the quiet strength of woman.
“Crowned in Stillness” celebrates the quiet power of woman who understands her worth. She wears no visible crown, yet her presence speaks of Royalty. Through her calm expression, confident posture, and dignified presence, the Artwork explores the beauty of self-awareness, inner peace and personal identity.
The work reminds us that true elegance is not always found in the outward display, but in the strength, confidence and dignity one carries within.

Title: “Crowned in stillness”
Medium: Oil and Acrylic on Canvas
Dimension: 152cm x 152cm (5ft by 5ft)
Signed: 2026.

I am a big fan of boxing , it’s my favorite sport and also I practice it. This is a huge inspiration behind every of my boxer painting series. It enables me to tell and expresses the Resilience, Power , Strength, Courage, struggles and most importantly the challenges of men.
Warrior painting series are not just an ordinary painting to me, these series interprets a lot to me about men’s mental health and also helps me fight my challenges and hard moments of my life.
“LIFE IS A WAR , I AM A WARRIOR , I STAND STILL AND STRONG”.

Title: WARRIOR II
Medium: Oil and Acrylic on canvas
Dimension: 61cm x 72cm

- MAN AND TIME.🔴
This piece is talking about time and the journey of mankind, which no one knows and unpredictable. That is why the clock he is holding is not speaking about certainty or specific time exactly. No one knows the right time but God only.

- MAN AND TIME
- Oil and Acrylic on canvas
- 61cm x 72cm
