Wayne Shorter

This image is an homage to one of the greatest jazz saxophonists of my lifetime Wayne Shorter. He is a native of Newark, New Jersey (my home) and I was moved by his greatness. Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. Psalm 150:6

Why

In honor of Pop Legend Roy Lichtenstein this style lends itself to the simplicity of the image in this form. The image is a reflection when I natural world crashes with our spiritual world .In those times of grief the Lord has left us with this promise. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Matthew5:4 Amen.

Praise

Praise is a Limited Edition Giclee Print being made available by American Artist Anthony Crudup.

High and Lifted Up

In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. Isaiah 6:1-8

Nosaka

Nosaka comes to me from the strength of the young tennis champion Naomi Osaka. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works ; my soul knows it very well. Psalm 139:14 In these trying times we need to be reminded of the challenges we face in our mental health . Be encouraged to address and confront them instead of saving face and going off the deep end to please others. Remember it is our uniqueness which presents our greatness unto the glory (goodness) of God. Amen

Beauty of Holiness

In these trying times we need to be reminded of the Beauty Of Holiness offered unto the Lord as he moves us from glory to glory and from faith to faith. Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before Him: Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness I Chronicles 16:29e

Misunderstood (Blood Brothers)

Two of the greatest African American men to grace the twentieth century. Malcom X and Muhammad Ali were aligned like blood brothers .

Good Trouble

But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord: He is their strength in the time of trouble Psalm 37:39

Our Daily Bread

Second in my series of images denoting the power which resonates as we become knowledgeable of the image of God through His son Jesus the Christ. As Jesus presents the example of the "Lords Prayer" it compels us to meditate daily on the request made before heaven and it's power to free us from the attempts of the evil one and spirit which removes us from the glory of God9

Living Water Rain

For the Lamb at the center of the thr one will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Revelation 7:17
This image represents the power of the living water as it is ministered through prayer. It is our prayer life that will produce the result favorable through the precious Lamb who sits on the throne. Amen

Big Boy

This image is created in memory of a blues legend Arthur"Big Boy" Crudup my namesake who is a distant relative to my father, Reading his bio it is incredible how three of his songs turn out as three of Elvis Pressley"s big hits.

Revelation

For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught [it], but by the revelation of Jesus Christ Galatians 1:10

Mourn

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. ..........Matthew 5:4 Everyday we all mourn the many challenges presented to us on a daily basis. Mourning doesn't always mean the dead. You can mourn the circumstance of your life which come in many forms. Relationships usually account for many moments of mourning for instance break ups, divorces,domestic violence, employment incidences and most of all the unexpected momements when those individuals who were apart of you life and no longer here.

Sweet Savour

For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: 2:16 To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? 2:17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

I'am Not Your Negro

Inspired by James Baldwin's unfinished manuscript, Remember This House, a collection of notes and letters written by Baldwin in the mid-1970s.[6] The documentary I Am Not Your Negro includes some of Baldwin's thoughts on the lives and deaths of his close friends and civil rights leaders Medgar Evers (assassinated in 1963), Malcolm X (assassinated in 1965), and Martin Luther King Jr. (assassinated in 1968)

Mom

In reference to the wonderful mother’s day here in the New York area. I was compelled to render this wonderful image of a mother and son. Although my mother has passed into glory the image of a loving mother can minister to the best and the worst of us. As a momma’s boy it is pleasure to reflect upon such an image. Enjoy

Thank You

This image serves as a reminder of the posture and glory when we give thanks to God. Our gratiude expresses an overwhelming desire to bless God with the image He created ,deposited and invested in is since the beginning of time. I believe that encountering this posture is a true expression of faith which is manifested daily in our lives. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, Hebrews 12:28

Brotherly Love

Born into a world that places an emphasis on self (narcisism) the perception of our existence is filtered and blocked by motives that are self defeating. Our Lord places an emphasis on loving your neighbor like a brother. The apostle Paul writes in Romans 12:10 "Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; ".

Image

And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Luke 22:31,32 Good Morning! Today is a day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. I was blessed this morning with the peace of God concerning the time that we are in. The blessing reached me through the word of God out of Luke Chapter 22 starting in verse 31 through verse 32. It paints an image that while Jesus was dealing with Simon(Peter) that the desire of the enemy(devil) was to sift him as as wheat.

Living Water V

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, Ephesians 5:25, 26 Number 5 in the Living Water Series the image provides me with an insight to the scripture in Ephesians Chapter 5.

Damn

In his second term in office there are some similarities to President Obama and his predecessor President Lincoln. In physical appearance both are lean , tall left handed and intelligent. Just like Lincoln he is damned if you do damned if you don't. I believe the presidency takes many years off the life of the President. If you ever look at a picture of Lincoln you kinda see a pic of President Obama. Notice how there faces are drawn in.

Living Water 111

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted Matthew 5:4 Third in the Living Water series of images it presents the posture needed when going through our most challenging moments. In the fifth chapter of Matthew our Lord illustrates to us one of the many blessings recieved whenever we encounter this action.

Michael K Williams This image is a rendering of a young man whose life was prematurely cut short through substance abuse. Although substance abuse is a symptom of what's really going on.It is sad to see such talent put to rest.
And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also [is] flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
Genesis 6:3
120 Years of life is God's promise. Amen.

Jakes

Delivering the good news for the King of Kings about his kingdom. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

Jesus Christ

Soon to return to Jerusalem to claim the Kingdom of Heaven here on Earth. The zero's are indicative of the fact that there is no time set. It can happen at any time. My advise prepare youself for His coming.
And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy city Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Revelation 21:10

All to Jesus

This image takes its presence from a group of Sudanese children before the Lord. Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3 -4 His word is true. In order for the Kingdom to come here on earth we need to humble ourselves such as little children.

Prayer 3

Teamates having a conversation with Our Lord concerning there competition.

His Workmanship

Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lords sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.1 Peter 2:14-17.

Tapping In

Another view of wonderful posture which is necessary for all of us at one time or another. To reach the power which is greater than us (God) we have to come to that place and time in our life, day and sometimes hour that will keep us from being overwhelmed by the fallen nature of this world and the god of it. It is the power that allow us to live. Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7.

Conversation

Created back in 2005 this image was born out of the midst of conversation being waged in the defense of our culture, religion, race,poverty, and so on which is on the decline. My main intention here is the present an illustration which references the way we have conversations with each other. Notice that all of the images are away from facing each other. Our conversations dance around the issues instead of facing them.

Bathing

One of the most wonderful pleasures in life I created this poece to hang in my bathroom. Enjoy

Precious

Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him. Psalm 127:3 One of the most precious gifts given to me was my son Emmanuel. While I created this image I was moved greatly on how valuable he is to me

Sonrise over Darkness

Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and you, because the darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.............1 John 2:8 Good Evening Lord. This evening as I was reminiscing on times spent with Emmanuel (my son)I became somewhat heavy and dark. Immediately I removed myself from the apartment I was preparing for rental and began to meditate on the promises you have for me. Lord it becomes a challenge when we miss living out your word as fathers. Malachi 4: 6 is very real in my heart and whenever I fall short of your glory concerning it I slip into these shadows of darkness. Father I ask in the name of your Son Jesus to send a mighty wind that will align me with your glory concerning this challenge. Jesus you are Lord over my life therefore I have to surrender in order to see the light which is already shining. Love you King and what you have done for me at the cross. I plead your precious blood over all my challenges this day and those to come. You are my hope and glory forever and ever. Amen

Brothers

This image refers to the first fight between Cain and Abel and how it relates to the present.

One

Celebrating their Gold medal win in Beijing the US Mens basketball team present the image of being number .............ONE

Living Water

My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water. Jeremiah 2:38 As we turn over another year and move into the new I have found that it is necessary to see the future in a positive and hopeful light. All of the years of my life previous to this one offer a perspective that speaks to the true nature of the human experience.

Sudanese Woman

This image is born out of the struggle which ensues in the country of Sudan. I try to capture the beauty of the human spirit in times of tragedy and loss. Popular Configurations Stretched Canvas Modern Lines Contemporary White Natural Clear Maple Unframed print .
