Description
African American Art - SALOMAO The Man
The name SALOMAO has origins in Hebrew and Portuguese. It means MAN OF PEACE. My Salomao represents everything male to me ... Everything strong, solid, earthy and ageless ... priceless. King of every inch of earth he steps upon - Sensitive, kind, sensual, tolerant, but firm in his beliefs and principles.
When I gaze into his eyes, I see the depths of my own burning soul reflected in them ... I hear the rhythm of his heartbeat, the cadence of his breath, and I see the wisdom he possess to cultivate his spirituality through his song.
Salomao ... A unique, one-of-a-kind portrait, painted by me using colored markers and pencils on heavy 9 x 12 acrylic paper. He was just one of those pieces I could not stop until he was completed. Typical guy; he kept me up all night.
