Since moving to Miami year-round in 2012, I have been making large-scale, mixed-media portraits of people in the Miami arts communities. An exhibition of 9 of my 40 x 60 inch, mixed-media portraits of patrons and performers at the Historic Hampton House during the era of Segregation opened on February 1, 2022. “First Person Portraits: Hampton House Performers & Patrons” was funded by an Ellies Award from Oolite Arts. The exhibition opened on February 1, with people in the portraits telling stories about their experiences at the Hampton House during the Jim Crow era. 

​From October 22, 2023 to April 1, 2024, the Jewish Museum of Florida in Miami Beach exhibited 27 of my large-scale, mixed-media portraits + 27 video portraits. 

We are currently organizing my next exhibition at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County, which will open in February, 2026.
