The idea for the Illustrious Women series came to me in early 2017. It seemed there was a collective need to celebrate the feminine, and I wanted to draw attention to and educate myself about the many women who have gone before me- women who lived the lives they wanted to and bettered the world in the process.

Maya Angelou

    • Original gouache painting on 100% cotton paper
    • Paper is approximately 5x6 inches; shown in 10x12 frames

    Maya Angelou, poet, memoirist and civil rights activist. She was also an accomplished dancer who worked with Alvin Ailey at one time, as well as SF's first African American cable-car operator. She worked as an actress and screenwriter as well, but is probably best known for her written works which speak to the themes of racial, class, and sexual oppression.

    This is an original work of art and may show evidence of the painting process such as tiny flecks of paint or light pencil marks, which are considered part of the work. Please see detail photos or contact with any questions.

    Photos represent color as accurately as possible but there may be slight variation from the screen to the actual painting.

    Unframed pieces will ship within a week from the studio San Diego, CA. Please allow an additional 2-3 weeks for framing.

    All prices include ground shipping within the United States.

    International shipping options will be offered and calculated upon checkout. Any customs fees or duties assessed by the country of delivery are the responsibility of the purchaser.
