    Fantastic, and I still haven’t figured out how you accomplish your look, the amazing color and layers and layers of texture boggles my mind.

    I encourage all children of color , as teens, to go to Africa, perhaps Kenya, or Senegal to FEEL a real sense of belonging, to SEE the way the Africans walk with self comfidence, when not abused emotionally by the white race, to reafirm their sense of SELF , so that maybe when they return to the USA and all its racist groups, just maybe they can stand tall, and KNOW who they are and how beautiful human beings they are with so much to offer the world, ….and NOT try to be any other skin color or race.. but feel the joy of being a dark skinned human being.
    Perhpas then , when thy run that old psychology test of showing white and black dolls to a vey young American girl of color, and asking them to choose the pretty doll.. they will now choose the black doll.. I hope I haven’t gotten tooo carried away with this, but I feel very strongly about white racists against any race/religion/culture….

  • Great observations. I shall comment in detail, later, OK?. Thx for sharing your thoughts.
