A TALE OF TWO MA’S

from $100.00

A TALE OF TWO MA’S🎭

Oil & Acrylic
36”x 48” Wood - Original


From the moment I saw Viola Davis disappear into the character of Ma Rainey the sight of her burned itself into my memory for what would be years. After my Grandma passed last year I would think about all the details that made her MARY JEAN. Her black thin brows she’d draw on with a dolla sto pencil, her Florida skin, Her gold tooth I always admired, Her country grammar…

All of things that made Viola Davis’s portrayal seem familiar to me. The Southern Women that made magic with their voices, hands, pots&pans and hugs. The real hometown heroes. Thank you 💐
