“Crown Me—RE” is a sculptural mixed-media artwork meticulously built from hundreds of shimmering rondelle beads. Each bead is individually placed to create an intricate, dimensional crown form that glows with gold, turquoise, amber, and iridescent tones. Set against a deep black velvet backdrop, the piece carries a richness and weight that feels both ancient and modern — a symbol of legacy brought into the present.

This work highlights The Expressionist’s mastery of texture, relief, and symbolic form. The crown rises off the surface like a jewel, catching light and shadow as it shifts throughout the day. Bold, regal, and full of cultural resonance, this piece stands as a testament to identity, craftsmanship, and artistic lineage.
