This sketch was inspired by the famous poet and author, Langston Hughes. My drawing style was inspired by Charles Wilbert White's overall work and Elizabeth Catlett's work titled 'The Black Woman Speaks'
I like your idea and here's just a suggestion, you should add more elements of Langston's time to really amplify the piece. Can't wait to see it when it's done!
Using acrylic paint I created a variety of different skin tones. I experiment with various mixtures and started with red, blue, and yellow undertones as a base. Creating these skin tones was most definitely a challenge but I think they turned out well.
This piece was inspired by another similar work that I had previously seen. In this artwork, I depicted different parts of Conyers and the surrounding community. I included the Synagogue, Olde Town buildings. The Dinky Train. Cherry Blossoms from Conyers' annual Cherry Blossom Festival, and red arch near the library and Lily pads from the Botanical Garden. I used acrylic paint for this piece with a watercolor background.
I love the concept of your art. Can't wait for the finished piece!<3
