Experiments in Acrylic

moremi_1

I'm blogging from Belmont today.


Usually, I work in watercolour because I love its fluidity, graphite because of its starkness. My style is quite different in acrylic paint than it is in those media.

I dig it though and I'm pleased with these ladies.
Meet Moremi, Anansa and Ella.


Season's Greetings and Keep good...

I love it - just found your blog by accident and your work is so great and beautiful to look at. I'm liking the acrylic. The texture and skin tones look darker - a bit like me. Ha!
You're very talented.

Hi!! I love love love your vision. I have yet to come across an artist who can bring to life the beauty of black women in a painting/drawing etc. Do you sell these over the internet? I'm in the washington DC area and would love to have your work in my apartment. If so, please email me at pamelamcfadden@live.com. I really am interested.

The last pic is my desktop background. Mainly because it bears an almost scary resemblance to me. Except my neck isnt as long and graceful, but apart from that, its pretty close. I'm really impressed by ur blog.
