Liberty Bank Building: Shovel-ready for art

First, the groundbreaking...

... and then we really get serious about making the art for the new Liberty Bank Building.  

This location used to be the site of the first black-owned bank west of the Mississippi.  

Now the land's being redeveloped into affordable apartments -- with art and design elements created by artists of African descent. I'm honored to contribute ten collage portraits for the future residents' permanent art collection.

As construction begins there, I'll be starting on the collages in my studio. It's a big project that will take a while, but I have A Plan, you'll see.
