If you are walking down 125th street between Morningside Ave and 5th Ave take a look up. This is the 2nd year that I have had a work of mine selected to become a Banner. Last year my Hazel Scott portrait was one of 5 art banners suluting Harlem women. This year I was lucky enough to be slected agian. The theme for this years banners salutes the musical sounds of Harlem. My contribution gives "Big Ups" to old shcool hip hop. Harlem has contributed names like Doug E Fresh, Biz Markie and Curtis Blow (first rap millionaire) who is shone in my work here.

 

So when next you are on 125th street don't let all the stores and the Apollo Markie take all of your attention. Look up and look out for the art banners. Mine will be 1 of 4 that will be installed during June - Black Music Month.
