ARTE: Chenoa Maxwell #BBP

"I’m a voyeur.  I like to watch. Or rather, I love to observe. Take in and capture the human experience- moments. Beauty, pain, their complex nature, evokes in me a desire to capture life~ 

Making my subjects their own icon. Life fascinates me. Humans inspire. Seeing is my meditation"

ARTE: Kenturah Davis #BBP

The piece directly below, "mother mother" represents two generations of women in the artists family.  Kenturah's drawing technique is quite remarkable.  For the works below Kenturah creates a grid she than stamps a letter in each box and those letters by her design are used to create the image.  In the case for "mother mother" each stamped drawing was made using the "word mother".
