WE ACTIVE, NOT IDLE!

PETAL SCORE IS A PRINT, BASED FROM MY MIXED MEDIA RELIEF PAINTING DEDICATED TO MY DEBUT EP “OUTSIDE PLAYIN”.

A CIRCLE CANVAS AND SEMI BASKETBALL WERE USED TO CREATE THE UNIQUE HAND CRAFTED PIECE. CIRCLES SYMBOLIZE COMPLETION. EACH ABSTRACT PETAL OVERLAPS ONE ANOTHER TO CREATE A COOL RHYTHM OF COLORS. I USE THIS SET OF COLORS CONSISTENTLY THROUGHOUT MY WORK, IT’S REFERRED TO AS THE “J91 PRINT”. THE SEMI BASKETBALL IS FILLED WITH CIRCLES THAT CAN BE INTERPRETED AS PETALS FROM FLOWERS.

MY GRANDMOTHER WOULD ALWAYS TELL ME AND MY FAMILY TO “GIVE ME FLOWERS WHILE I CAN SMELL THEM”, AND THAT QUOTE RESONATES WITH ME BECAUSE OF THE UNDERTONE -CHERISH LIFE, THE PEOPLE AND THINGS THAT ARE MOST IMPORTANT BECAUSE WHEN THEY ARE NO LONGER HERE, THE OPPORTUNITY TO APPRECIATE IS GONE AS WELL. I WILL CONTINUE TO GIVE, & CHERISH WHAT’S IMPORTANT WHILE I’M ALIVE.
MAKE IT COUNT! PETAL SCORE!
