Gooey
This baby is called “Gooey” inspired by Glass Animals.
This song is such a vibe and it just felt so right as it came on as I was doing it so god basically chose it!!!!
I made myself an African fan brush as I wanted to make the paint dance and I think I accomplished my mission!!
It’s got so much texture on the canvas, I just love it!! I can’t express how much better it looks in real life!! Photos don’t do it justice.

Will He
This piece is entitled “Will He” inspired by Joji
I wanted to start my new phase of exploring the flow of movement by using black and white.
To use lines and structure to create something simple but eye catching.
This song has been on the waiting list for a painting as it’s so smooth and deep, it’s the way the beat is so strong and his voice is so soft.

Hey Little Baby
This piece is entitled “Hey Little Baby” inspired by Dope Lemon.
I have wanted to create a piece to this song for such a long time as it's just so beautiful, soft and dreamy. I love going away and reminiscing on the times I've had laying on a beach and seeing the world. I wanted to keep the colours soft in this piece and make the paint dance on the canvas.

She Wants To Move
This piece is entitled “She Wants To Move” by N.E.R.D.
This song has been with me for years, I can't help but dance every time I hear it. It’s so powerful and sexy and I couldn’t be happier with this piece. I wanted to create something using only red, yellow, black and white, something made with simple tools but that's crazy and full of life.

I love this song as it makes you want to DANCE, I don’t know one person n m can't help but dance to this song, the lyrics are so simple but cool and it's just the best vibe ever. I am ready to tackle the world after hearing this song and it makes me feel so good.

Oops
This piece is entitled “Oops” inspired by Tweet and Missy Elliot and I could not be happier with this piece.
I wanted to create a piece to this song for so long as it's such a sexy song, I love her lyrics as she is feeling herself so much. I am a big believer of self love and feeling sexy in your body no matter what. I use charcoal, acrylic, pen, pencil and spray paint to create this baby.

Never Too Much
This piece is entitled “Never Too Much” inspired by Luther Vandross.
I love this song as it holds a special place in my heart, it’s my mum and dad's wedding song and what a song it is!!! I loved every second of making this painting, it was created using various techniques and tools but I wanted to keep the focus on the crosses, lines and circles because I wanted them to jump out of the painting. I love how the paint dances in this piece.
