This September I’m fortunate to be involved in two worthwhile initiatives on each side of the Atlantic. “Untold Gold’ is a two week event in London showcasing the amazing breadth, quality and originality of black creativity from around the world. The event forms part of London’s Design Festival showcasing the city’s pivotal role in global design. The African & African- Caribbean Design Diaspora (AACDD) places the outstandingly beautiful and original work of more than 150 creative professionals from the UK, mainland Europe, Africa and the Caribbean within the unique backdrop and raw space of Bargehouse, on London’s South Bank.
I’m glad to be part of this year’s ‘Make Peace’ collaborative art exhibition organised by The Peace Project. I am inspired and privileged to be exhibiting alongside some very talented individuals. The show provides a platform for artists to share their vision of what ‘makes peace.’ The traveling show, appropriately titled ‘Peace Travels’ will be unveiled on September 22nd at the Deep Ellum ArtWalk, Dallas, Texas.

This is the latest in the ’ Paintings in the Making ’ series documenting the artist David Emmanuel Noel painting in front of the camera. This video showcases one of a number of paintings produced during the summer of 2012 and features the track ‘Shine’ performed by the talented British singer Lifford Shillingford, widely recognised for his lead vocals on Artful Dodger’s dance hit ’ Please Don’t Turn Me On.’
