Crowned in Concrete

30"x40" Original Acrylic Painting on Gallery-Wrapped Canvas (2025) 

Limited edition prints available

She sits still, but nothing about her is soft.
Crowned in Concrete is a visual love letter to the women who rise from grit and still glow like gold. Rooted in stoop culture and Southern porch memory, this portrait holds the quiet power of someone who’s survived, unshaken, unbothered, and completely sovereign. Her gaze doesn’t ask for permission. The headwrap is her crown. The concrete steps are her throne.

From the vibrant houseplants to the stubborn weeds breaking through cracks, every detail symbolizes growth, struggle, and beauty in survival. This is the first painting in an ongoing series honoring the stoop as sanctuary—where resilience meets rest, and everyday life becomes sacred.

Whether you grew up on the East coast or the Deep South, you know this space. You’ve lived this stillness. You’ve seen her.
