3.) Much Like The Jazz Music That [R2C2H2] Pays
Tribute To, His Artwork Is Spiritually Informed And
Speak To People In A Very Humane And Direct Way.
[R2C2H2] Is One Of The Most Knowledgeable People That
I Ever Met, Yet His Artwork Is Not Clouded In Codes
That Prevent The Layperson From Understanding It.
Neither Is It So Simple As To Be Dismissed…The Journey
Through His Consciousness Took Me To Historical And
Spiritual Places Carved Out Through Abstractly Formed
Rhythmic And Voluptuous Bodies Of Jazz Musicians,
African American Heroes And Martyrs.
- Chandra Williams; Visual Artist, Arts Educator And Founder Of The Brilliant Easel

To Possibly Even Thrive.

Abilities That Excel Within The Studio Environment And

An Impact, An Artist Who Will Challenge And Who Will
Reward Those Who Accept His Challenges.

That Bleeds Over Into His Art…As A Multi-Faceted And
Multi-Talented Artist, [R2C2H2] Has Risen To The Ranks
Of One Of The Nation’s Most Promising Voices. His Art
Speaks Of Legacy, Maturity And Hope. Through His Art,

Creative Innovation Of Charlie Parker, The Sincerity

And The Social, Political And Economic Commentary Of
Tupac Shakur.

Painting And Drawing...He Has Expanded His Knowledge
Of Black History, Jazz, Gospel Music, African
Art…Using All The Elements He Gathers From Experience
And Study He Synthesizes His Images, Real And
Dreamlike, Into Large Scale Works Filled With Line And
Color. They Are In Vocative Messages Which Can Be
Seen Over And Over, Each Time Presenting New Thoughts

From Presenting The Truth In History, So There Are

Places.
