Description
This African-American woman has many colors, though exaggerated here in reds and blues. The title is a misnomer, for black is the absence of color. We would not see without light reflected on an object or person. A particular ethnic group may share some physical characteristics, but the individual reflects more of herself than the group that claims her.

A truly lovely artwork, Shirl; exquisite lines... a fine delicacy flows throughout, a most incredible light :))

Connie, you have a compelling way with words.Thanks. Currently, I'm promoting my musical comedy "The Strudel Lady". I could sure use you for PR. Interested?
