We Celebrate BLACK HISTORY Month and Every Day of the Year,
the great and powerful voices of the Black Artists!
“It is not enough to put paint to paper. You must say to the world and to yourself, you are a painter, a creator… and believe it is true. Then and only then, will that ordinary paint come alive and speak to you and the world.”
