The Days of Plenty
My second poetry collection, "The Days of Plenty," tells the story of how my life progressed once I chose to become an artist. As I wrote these poems, I noticed I was doing something strange. I was writing down the dates. I had accidentally started crafting a bit of a magical carnival in an artistic journal.

Days of Plenty Facts
Dive Into The Visual Diary
It took me a while to figure out exactly how I wanted to tell this story visually. I knew I wanted to carry over the visual poetry idea I began in Ritual and Ruin, but I wasn't sure about what I wanted to show you as you journey through the pages.
About three years into editing, and with enough time for the story to settle, I decided on the image of a dark twisted masquerade.
Designed for The Digital Detox
In a world flooded with generative noise, I wanted The Days of Plenty to serve as an intentional antidote. Designed as a physical signifier of taste, this book offers a necessary digital detox, allowing you to trade screen time for the sensory experience of high-fidelity visual storytelling
The need for the images to fit the vision was the driving force behind Masquerade is Rebellion. That project saw me exploring the history and heritage in the way Caribbean people party. There's an electrifying catharsis in our dancing.
It has taken 5 years to get here. That's 5 years of inspiration and creativity after I thought the days of plenty had ended. Many things have changed in my memory, but this is how the days of plenty look to me now.
