An Artist's Reaction
Kerry James Marshall's Untitled ( painter ), 2009 Acrylic on PVC
The leaves of auguries
Sighting spellbound
The creaking mast
An original elegiac sound
Mesmeric.
Noah Davis. 1982 -2015
Founded The Underground Museum with Karon Davis.
40 Acres and a Unicorn 2007
Acrylic and gouache.
The botanical scion pirouettes on delight.
Rare design of figures, interjections,
Phantoms in the elixir.
Wangechi Mutu, Kenyan artist.
The Second Dreamer 2017
Mwotaji- The dreamer in Kiswahili.
Space expanded for freedom
The fallen leaf
A flutter of eye glasses.
