Arnica's Members Show and Sale in Kamloops

Origins of a Woman

I love the look of a shaven black woman. There is something about the African bones that carries a grace, dignity, power and beauty in her shaven scalp that's not so easily achieved by women of other ethnicities- myself included. And in her shaven grace she shows the rest of us that we are stunning, even without the adornments that typically define 'woman', like flowing locks.

It is as though she has stripped herself unapologetically to the core. In the absence of what we expect from a woman she is even more feminine and delicate- delicate like a diamond that cannot be easily broken and can slice through steel.

This lass is framed and ready for the Arnica Artist Run Center's members show and sale. Stop by and check out some of Kamloops amazing artist March 3rd to 11th, in conjunction with Art Exposed at the Old Court House.
