In its 18th year, fueled by dialogue resulting from the film, For Colored Girls, and the original 1970s choreopoem, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf, African American artists presented work eploring the complexities of various relationships. Here are the two paintings I exhibited with this exhibit at the Ritz Theatre and Museum, 829 N. Davis St., Jacksonville, FL
"Guardians of the Rainbow Children"
"Same child two different unions"
My brother-in-law Bob Bahr surprised me at the opening.
All three of these paintings are my work.
With fellow artists James Robinson, Keith Doles, Overstreet Ducasse, Janeece Lyles

Artist Marsha Hatcher and myself did similar images of Cayenne Pepper Pickers from our trip to Nigeria.
Marsha's image is in acrylic painting with white paint only. Mine is a linoleum print.
My mentor was artist Cookie Davis. I put my "Uwacu" print into 3-D in clay putting the patterns of the skirt "carved" in the clay.
Cookie's sculpture is on the left and mine is on the right. This show is at the Ritz Theatre and LaVilla Museum. It opened Nov. 19, 2009 and goes to July 30, 2010.
