“2+2=5: Collaborations”

"A Tribute to Thunder- Sky" by Cedric Michael Cox and Raymond Thunder- Sky


It’s an honor to be apart of the Thunder-Sky Inc. “2+2=5: Collaberations” exhibition. Like the Raymond Thunder-Sky Legacy Mural designed by Antonio Adams, I was once again inspired by the spirit of Raymond and his everlasting love for the circus.

“Chocolat” at Prairie


Thank you Brian Joiner for inviting to be apart of your league of creative visionaries in the Chocolate Exhibition at Prairie Gallery. Once again you challenged me to not only think outside the box but to pull from the sensuality that the subject matter(chocolate) already evokes to the senses. Along with the work of Gustav Klimpt and Alphonse Mucha you have once again inspired me.  A portion of proceeds from the exhibition’s sales benefit the Taft Museum of Art’s Duncanson Society.
