Welcome to Original Silk-Featherbrush Art & Style, a blog chronicling contemporary art discoveries and developments at the same time that it celebrates the 100th Anniversary of the Harlem Renaissance.
  • Read first blog post here: Art Plus Poetry Equals Amazing Magic Part 1
​
​My preparation for the Harlem Renaissance Centennial actually began with publication of the books Encyclopedia of the Harlem Renaissance (Facts On File/Infobase Publishing) and The Wisdom of W.E.B. Du Bois (Kensington Books) in 2003. My work as a historian and poet inspired by the Harlem Renaissance eventually led to a different kind of journey. I elected to give free reign to a long-suppressed instinct to communicate with the world through visual art as well as literary. My efforts got underway in earnest with the establishment of Postered Chromatic Poetics. They reached a new milestone with the Silk-Featherbrush Art & Style Series first launched on Fine Art America and Pixels.com. 

Silk-Featherbrush: A Definition

In one sense, Silk-Featherbrush may be accurately defined as a specific line of artworks I created and which have become known for its distinct style, which combines a range of visual effects with Postered Chromatic Poetic techniques. It got its start when experiments to establish a fresh stylistic strategy did not work out and attempts to correct it led to a completely different highly-original approach.

In another sense, Silk-Featherbrush Art& Style is an individual creative process which cannot be precisely duplicated because a core component of the process is an application of different physical and aesthetic elements composed of individual concerns as a poet, journalist, historian, and spiritual philosopher. It also often incorporates artifacts used to create canvases which alternately may be described as: mixed media, paintings, digital creations, photography, posters, painted poems, or visual editorials. 

About This Art Blog

The blog entries begin with some of the earlier writings and images posted on Fine Art America in 2017 and continue with the most up-to-date Art-Notes and personal reflections detailing stories and inspirations behind each canvas. The text has usually been included on an individual work of art's product page but for some was too obscured by different features. Here, visitors can take their time learning more about Silk-Featherbrush Art & Style and those who wish to make purchases will find secure features like the one below available for their convenience.
