Susan Mains, Big Drum Dancer, 46" x 46" Oil on Canvas 2014
Spent some time in Carriacou, watching the Big Drum Dances, and this young lady danced on to my canvas in a heavy impasto of oil. Then she danced out, on her way to her new home. More Caribbean Dancing Girls to come.
Wednesday, April 23, 2014 at 08:33PM No matter where I wander in terms of artistic expression, for example, video art, I always come back to my painting roots, and to my love of Grenada and the Caribbean. Cocoa, Breadfruit, and the Carenage-- essential.
