I had not been very regular with postings on this blog.
So, I post when I can what I can. Please feel free to visit my website. I try my best to keep it up to date.
Sharing a portrait, an old favorite - Martin Luther King Jr.
King
18 x 24 x .5 in

In 1968, King was planning a national occupation of Washington, D.C., to be called the Poor People's Campaign, when he was assassinated by James Earl Ray on April 4 in Memphis, Tennessee; riots followed in many U.S. cities. He was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal. Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established as a holiday in numerous cities and states beginning in 1971, and as a U.S. federal holiday in 1986. Hundreds of streets in the U.S. have been renamed in his honor, and a county in Washington State was also rededicated for him. The Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., was dedicated in 2011.

Portraits move me, inspire me, and make me feel thankful. I hope to make more and more and make contribution to others life through my skills and art.
