MSW Stained Glass

𝐸𝓊𝓅𝒽𝑜𝓇𝒾𝒶, 2023

Inspired by the show, 𝐸𝓊𝓅𝒽𝑜𝓇𝒾𝒶 is one of my more lowkey pieces from a couple years back but still one of my favorites. Based on one of the visually beautiful scenes, I loved the presentation of hanging roses all around and wanted to take that imagery and translate that into glasswork. Swipe to the end to see a sweet surprise of my honey ✨

Title: “Off the Wall: Slip-on Icon”
Size: 9.25” x 4”
Bless Your Sole 2.0

This piece reimagines a classic checkerboard Vans shoe as a sculptural stained-glass object. Nearly true to a size 7, the form remains familiar. From top to bottom, this piece is transformed through a meticulous arrangement of embellishments that echo the iconic checker pattern and waffle patterned grid.

All in all, I’d say this took about 65-80 hours to create. I’ve been asked a lot how I did this, and I honestly just winged it from the very beginning. I used my own pair of Vans for reference and mapping out but the rest was just having faith in myself that I could get this done. And I did 🥲

Thank you for the love and if you missed opening night, keep up with the for more gallery hours!

Moments from Duval to the World 🌳✨

This was such an incredible experience and new way of viewing one of our city’s greatest treasure - Treaty Oak Park. The love and care that put into this project – scratch that – visual storytelling was so special. And being the first to activate Treaty Oak in such a huge way? Next level! You deserve all the flowers Chef🙌💕

Every detail was so well thought out and I can’t wait to see what happens here next. Admittedly, I’ve barely visited Treaty Oak ( I don’t explore the south bank very often) but this will now be a place I revisit again and again.

Through the work of , we get activations like this and see what our creative community can truly do with the right support. Jax is on the rise and if you’re not riding the wave to uplift + broaden communities together – don’t complain when things happen that you don’t like. Put your ideas to paper and make it happen!

Duval to the World 🌳✨

Super excited to have been invited + join this Sunday under the canopy of Treaty Oak Park honoring the flavorful legacy of Black Chefs 🤌

Whipped up some old and new ideas for this special project - a cute little shrimp, slice of key lime pie, and a bundle of fruit. I wanted to make things that were a little bit of me while keeping to the story of Duval to the World.

🦐 The shrimp represents Mayport; where I’ve planted my roots and found my home. Mayport Shrimp is the best and most freshest shrimp around.

🥧 The key lime pie slice represents not only a delicious dessert (don’t at me if you don’t like it) but also is deeply rooted in Florida’s history, specifically the Keys. The folklore of “Aunt Sally” is a colloquialism for Black, Cuban, and Bahamian Chef’s.

🫐 Finally, the bundle of fruit is my homage to my time spent working with farmers for over 4 years. Farmers make the world go round and are artists themselves!

If you haven’t gotten tickets yet, make sure you do. Tickets are still available on Chef Onyx’s page 🙌

It’s nearly there, but we have ourselves a shoe! 🤌

Just need to do a couple more finishing steps and this will be ready to reveal at Bless Your Sole show on Wednesday, April 1st 🏁🖤🤍

Vans Shoe Update: We have formation! It’s looking crazy now, but I was able to lay out the top checkers to truly see it will all come together. I’ve got a couple tricks up my sleeve that I’m hoping work out the way I think it will.

Now it’s time to foil 🏁

Progress update on my 3D Vans Shoe! The vision is slowly forming 🤌🏁👟

Someone told what if this leads to a partnership with and honestly I will be manifesting that. I’m a firm believer that if speak what you want out loud and into the universe, it will provide. So LETS GOOO

The Gallery Brunch Hop is back in action again this upcoming Sunday, March 1st ✨

Love moments like these where we open up the studio for anyone to come in, explore our space and see what we’re working on to just hang out! If you can make it or have free time, stop on by 🌟

Spotted in Downtown Jax - Big Gatah 🐊

Dropped this guy off to the crew for the Swamp Soirée gala next Friday! Flexed a bit on this piece and did some things I don’t normally do.

For this I really wanted all the texture of the gator to be right side up rather on the back of the piece, and it fits the vibe so perfectly 🙂‍↔️ I also placed the teeth on top to keep the 3D element going and engraved the neck details to tie everything together!

Want to make it yours? It’ll be up for the Silent Auction leading up to the gala where you can touch and see it in person! See y’all in the swamp next Friday 💚

Signed, sealed, and (almost) delivered 🤌

Took a hot second to get here but so in awe of how this turned out. 2026 is truly shaping out to be a year that I take on new challenges and projects (this is why I say careful what you say, cause baby the universe will provide!) 🫨

This piece was a fun, new experiment with the use of the glass trinket plates. Rather than displaying ok a shelf or set aside, they’ll now be on hung up and on full display in a unique way. The colors all intertwine and remind me of gemstones.

Final specs are 14’x32’ with a mix of copper foil, lead came and zinc.
