More work to be done on the drawing part of this painting. Colors are more saturated than they appear in the photos. Overall, I’m pleased with the composition and how much I accomplished in one session.

If you read nothing else this new year, let it be this piece. A former New York Times editor laid out how they're anti trans coverage was directed from the top by AG Sulzberger, Joe Kahn, and Carolyn Ryan. This was a purposeful effort to target trans people.

“This colorful view of a crowded reading room may show the 135th Street Library---now the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture---where the country's first significant collection of African American literature, history, and prints opened in 1925. Everybody appears absorbed in their books, and the standing figure in the front looking at African art may represent the artist as a young man, delving deeper into his heritage.” Smithsonian American Art Museum
