The Solarra Series

The Studio's Vault

Meet Solarra — the muse, the spirit, and the guiding force behind this collection.

Each piece captures a different side of her journey, from her earthly roots to her celestial rise. Through nature, silence, and the cosmos, Solarra symbolizes growth, transformation, and the power of feminine energy in every form.

Crowned Silence Featuring Solarra

Crowned by the Cosmos” introduces Solarra, a celestial muse whose beauty and presence stretch far beyond the physical world. Her afro swirls into a living nebula — deep blues, purples, and stardust forming the galaxy that surrounds her.

Golden highlights illuminate her face, giving her an otherworldly glow, while tiny stars shimmer through her cosmic crown. Solarra represents intuition, divine feminine power, and the eternal connection between the spirit and the universe.

As the cosmic counterpart to your earth-born piece, “Crowned by Nature,” Solarra symbolizes the ascension half of the series — the dreamer, the guide, the cosmic queen who exists between galaxies yet remains deeply human.

This piece marks the beginning of Solarra’s story, with more chapters of her journey to be painted and revealed.

Crowned by Silence” reveals Solarra in her most powerful form of restraint — where quiet becomes strength. With her golden crown rising above a deep, textured afro, she holds a single finger to her lips, commanding peace without speaking a word.

Her pose symbolizes confidence, discipline, and the elegance of holding her power inward rather than outward. Soft tones contrast against bold lines, creating a striking image of mystery and authority.

This piece represents Solarra’s inner world — the moments where growth, clarity, and transformation happen in stillness.

SOLARRA: “THE PINK ASCENSION”

(HAND-TUFTED RUG)

This hand-tufted rug represents Solarra’s first awakening—the moment she began stepping into her power, her womanhood, and her divine sense of identity. Depicted in a soft pink bikini, this version of Solarra symbolizes her connection to warmth, softness, and self-love before the world ever tried to shape her.

In the Solarra Universe, this is the version of her who discovered the strength of presence—the realization that beauty isn’t armor, but energy. The gentle curves, highlighted tones, and confident posture each reflect her emergence as the figure who would soon inspire an entire collection centered around empowerment, sensuality, and sacred femininity.

This piece is crafted to feel like a luxury statement—bold enough for a walk-in closet, dressing room, or personal sanctuary. It captures the moment Solarra looks inward and finally sees the goddess she is becoming.

SOLARRA: “RESILIENCE IN BLOOM” (PAINTING)

This painting captures Solarra during her Rebirth Era—a pivotal chapter in her story where she faces her past, sheds what tried to break her, and walks into her future carrying only strength.

Positioned with her back to the viewer, Solarra’s exposed form symbolizes vulnerability without fear. Her natural Afro crowns her like a halo, and the pink abstract backdrop represents emotional reconstruction—soft, beautiful, but layered with complexity.

In the Solarra Universe, this is the moment she reclaims her identity, reconnecting with the earth beneath her and the power she carries in her body. It reflects liberation after struggle — a reminder that healing isn’t quiet; it’s transformative, loud, and beautifully disruptive.

This piece stands as a celebration of black femininity, resilience, and the unstoppable rise of a woman who learns not only to survive, but to ascend.

This painting is one of the most meaningful pieces I’ve ever created, because it represents the man who shaped my mindset, my drive, and the way I show up in the world. My father has always been a mentor in ways that go beyond words — through discipline, consistency, and the example he set every single day.

 

The portrait shown here, painted from the photo of him standing in the room with the deep blue background, captures more than just his appearance. To me, it captures his energy, his confidence, and the quiet strength he carries. Painting him felt like honoring the blueprint he created for me: how to work hard, stay focused, and move with intention.

 

There’s a story behind why this moment means even more. While I was working on a Muhammad Ali piece for a SNKRBOX585 order, my father saw it and instantly tried to keep the artwork for himself — he loved it that much. He didn’t get to take that one, but I surprised him later by creating a separate Muhammad Ali piece just for him. That gift became another reminder of how much he’s poured into me and how art has always been a bridge between us.

 

This portrait symbolizes the lessons he taught me:

• how to stand tall in tough times

• how to be patient and stay grounded

• how to dream bigger than your circumstances

• and how to carry yourself like a man with purpose

 

It’s not just a painting — it’s gratitude.

It’s respect.

It’s a visual “thank you” to the person whose guidance, love, and mentorship helped shape the man I am today.

 

This will always be one of the cornerstone pieces in my creative vault, representing family, legacy, and the bond that inspired so much of my artistry.

Customized Furniture

Every piece in this collection represents my passion for rebuilding, repurposing, and transforming the ordinary into something unforgettable. I accept custom orders in multiple ways—whether it’s a worn-out piece of furniture a client already owns, a curbside find with hidden potential, or a brand-new build created entirely from scratch.

I specialize in taking forgotten or outdated furniture and turning it into bold, functional artwork. From full restorations to hand-painted designs and complete structural rebuilds, each project is crafted with care and creativity. These are just a few of the many one-of-a-kind transformations I’ve brought to life over the years, and every piece tells a story of revival, imagination, and craftsmanship.

1. TuftMasters Custom Rugz – Back Story “Painting With Yarn” What started as a new challenge quickly became one of my favorite lanes of art. TuftMasters Custom Rugz was born from the realization that my lifelong drawing and painting skills could evolve into something entirely new. Hand-tufting gave me a fresh canvas—one made of yarn instead of pencil and paper—and it pushed my creativity into a different dimension. Every rug is carved, shaved, shaped, and sculpted by hand. From anime characters to original concepts, TuftMasters lets me turn imagination into functional art that transforms any room. It’s one of my newest ventures, but it carries the same passion I’ve had since I was nine years old—just expressed through a whole new medium. And this is only the beginning.

2. PaintCulture585 – Back Story “Where Art, Community, and Culture Meet” PaintCulture585 was originally created as a paint-and-sip brand I started with my sister, hoping to show her how art could become a lifestyle, a community, and a business. Even though she chose to pursue her own path, I kept the brand alive and expanded its purpose. Today, PaintCulture585 is a creative hub—where you can book paint-and-sip sessions, purchase original artwork, commission custom pieces, and dive into a world built around expression and connection. I’ve been drawing since age nine and painting since seventeen, and this brand carries years of growth, experimentation, and passion. PaintCulture585 is my reminder that art will always be bigger than the canvas—it’s a culture.

3. SNKRBOX585 – Back Story “Born From the Love of Sneakers” SNKRBOX585 began when I was seventeen, inspired by my own love of sneakers and the massive collection I had as a high school kid. One day I saw someone post the original sneaker-box furniture idea, and instead of just admiring it, I decided to build my own. That single decision launched a journey with no limits. I became the first to create a fully functional Yeezy-themed sneaker storage box, and before long, custom orders were rolling in—each one leaving customers excited, surprised, and emotional. Every box is built from scratch, hand-painted, reinforced, and designed to be the centerpiece of any sneaker lover’s room. SNKRBOX585 is not just furniture—it’s functional art. And the world hasn’t even seen the half of what’s coming next.
