Through Our Eyes Feb. 24 - May 7, 2011

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

Day one, drawing the mural sketch. Yes it was frigid cold in Florida on Jan. 23. The Art Center teamed up with HandsOn Jax and volunteers to work on a mural covering the entire module in the center of a low income housing area off Golfair on the northside of Jacksonville. TAC artists have been giving their Saturdays up to accomplish this mural and work in the community. Stay tuned for updates and the final mural revealed.
