BLACK FACE SERIES




Ok these pieces are each on a 30x40 canvas and the mediums used were alot of black acrylic and other acrclic paint, spray paint and a few post office stickers.
I had these for sell in harlem on 125th a few days ago and i got a lot of feedback most was good but i got a few older black folks telling me what i was doing was a bit racist....what?!!...but im black lol how can that be racist. I told her with these pieces im trying to put a new spin on something that was created to make us look like fools. These pieces were to show that even if people thought i looked like this i still would have pride and respect for myself but of course she didn't see that and of course i stop trying to tell her.
