Alphonso Edwards II

My artistic expression core is about bringing to life various experiences, thoughts and memories that have been forever seared into my mind. Ultimately, the pieces that I create also bear light into the lives of other people and their life experiences. The human figure in its entirety provides a canvas for expressing my thoughts by combining abstract concepts with reality.
