A Banjo Lesson Reinterpreted
I’ve been cheating on poetry with painting 🙂 I finally finished my latest project, which is my own interpretation of Henry Ossawa Tanner’s “The Banjo Lesson”. Let me know what you think!
Images
from Shel Silverstein’s Where the Sidewalk Ends
These books may have been meant for children, but I still love them
The Banjo Lesson- Henry Ossawa Tanner
First African American painter to include positive images of his own culture. I’m using this as the inspiration for my new painting. Can’t wait!
