Title
This Artist Speaks Truth
Artist
Angela L Walker
Medium
Painting - Acrylic, Watercolor, & Ink On Watercolor Paper
Description
The inspiration for this piece is a quote by Mary McLeod Bethune:
"The true
worth
of a race
must be
measured
by the
character
of its
womanhood."
I took chances with this piece... and while it may seem strange to some, it is truly near and dear to my core beliefs.
This is a mixed media painting made with layers of scrap paper, Intense pencils, glitter, acrylic, and ink on 9" x 12" Canson heavyweight watercolor paper.
