I studied under Winold, and was encouraged by him to draw influence from my black heritage and Africanism also.
However, it is incomplete and waiting to be drawn, as I continue to look forward with great aspiration and joy to excel. In the mural of history, our lives are portrayed as art. Our families’ memories are embedded in paintings, which are interconnected through experiences and differences. Within the grand mural of America is where my painting lies, adding diversity to the entire artwork of African American and Latino culture.

Analysis of The Wedding Dance After analyzing the several means and the laws of unity and seeing how they work in various pieces of sculpture and painting, it seemed advisable to take one art work and make a more less complete analysis of it as a review of all the primary points concerned.
