About the work: Canvas Drawing #afronauta was begun at the Kelly Strayhorn Theater during the Afronauta Film and Performance Series, curated and produced by artists Alisha B Wormsley and Blaine Siegel. During this drawing, Alisha read an excerpt from 'Womanwords: A Dictionary of Words About Women' while I drew for a small audience. I later finished this in my studio with more chalk and gesso and finally by placing it in the washer/dryer.
