Rodney is a Detroit-based artist who works at the PASC Detroit Studio. He makes stylized representational and abstract artworks, drawn from a wide range of references such as situation comedies, landscapes, and artifacts. Although he is mostly known from is quilt like abstractions, he refers to them as 'freestyles'. He has a unique drawing style marked by casual line-work and simplified forms. He mostly uses watercolor to fill in the shapes of the forms in his drawings with bright, contrasting colors to create images that shift between abstraction and realism.
He has exhibited with the Office of Disability Affairs, Detroit, MI (2025); University of Michigan, Institute for the Humanities, Ann Arbor, MI (2025); PASC Detroit Gallery, Detroit, MI, (2024); PASC at BasBlue, Detroit, MI (2024); Swords Into Plowshares Gallery, Detroit, MI (2022); PASC Detroit Pop-Up Gallery, Detroit, MI (2022); The Scarab Club, Detroit, MI, (2021); PASC Southgate Gallery, Southgate, MI (2021); and in one online exhibition on the PASC website. His artwork has been exhibited at art fairs such as Creativity Explored x Open Invitational, San Francisco, CA (2026). His artwork is also in the collection of Detroit's Henry Ford Hospital Health Clinics.
