Working on my art installation at Meow Wolf Houston last year. On this day, I really got to take in the things that I enjoy about being an artist. Watch the full video on YouTube.

I did this one a couple of weeks ago. I used gellyroll pens on chalkboard paper. I think it looks like a jellyfish.

Give it Back

@giveitback.bsky.social

René Cox (Jamaican-born/AfricanAmerican, b. 1960) • Chillin' with Lady Liberty • 1996 #RenéCox #BlackWomanArtist #contemporaryart #photography #AmericanArtist #art&activism
#https://www.reneecox.org/ #FeministArt

In 1991, the New York Times published an article about an up-and-coming African-American artist turning heads at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. The work sparked such controversy that the article made the front page. It was a colour photograph, depicting a nude woman assuming the role of Christ in the Last Supper - an image Mayor Rudolph Giuliani called ‘disgusting’, ‘outrageous’ and ‘anti-Catholic’, demanding it be taken down. The artist’s response to the Mayor? ‘Get over it’.

That artist was Renée Cox.

Renee Cox isn’t about the bullshit: she is sharp and unapologetic about the subjects she channels. Cox uses her body as a conduit: a small axe chopping at the brittle branches of false and exclusionary histories. For the last 30 years, the prolific photographer has posed for more than a thousand portraits and exhibited hundreds of images within series that have come to define late 20th century portraiture.

In all iterations, Cox’ work champions Black narratives; the known and unknowable chronicles of Black presence in America and the Caribbean. Her portraits have no limitations: Black people are gods, superheroes, Maroon freedom fighters and sacred Madonnas.

Good Morning!

This is a drawing I made a couple of weeks ago. This is done with gellyroll pens on chalkboard paper. I've been experimenting with color because I used to stick with black and white only. What do you think?

Is this an anatomically correct horned lizard?

But did I have fun making this pot? Absolutely did yes and what's the point of making If you aren't having some fun with it?

What's your favorite part of this piece? I most enjoy the texture

This is done with watercolor markers on marker paper. For the black lines, I used a posca paint pen. What do you think this one looks like? #art #discoverart #blackwomanartist #blackskyartist #abstractart
