Hello, and welcome to my KweenAfro Art. My name is Josephine and ever since I could pick up a pencil and paper, I found I had a knack for drawing. I drew my feelings, dreams and visions for what I hoped for and how I saw myself and others around me. Art became so much part of my life that it helped me cope through the loneliest nights at Sick Kids hospital. I was born with a genetic blood disorder called, Sickle Cell Anemia. A painful, crippling disease that consumed the majority of my life thus far but through faith I've recently overcome and continue to overcome each day. Just like Sickle Cell, it can be difficult to 'see' the beauty in the pain, and 'hear' the voice that's often neglected. My art has given a voice to that which is not seen or heard.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
We often 'Look' with our eyes and conclude that what we 'See' is all there is. I challenge you to "See" with your heart and look beyond the image before you. What do you feel?
