dc homage








homage to all sister artists throughout the ages,
 those who worked in stolen hours, unappreciated, ignored, scorned,
 denied access to a male art world and who, despite everything continued to work
 because it was their way of life,
 because that was what they were ,
 artist in heart and soul.


this weeks drawing challenge theme was chosen by the always surprising artist Kristen,
please go to her lovely place to find out about all the participants

  2. Beautiful and a great way interpretation for this theme, I think you made the most important one! Thank you for your words, some of us still have to deal with this, some of my teachers in art school told me the most stupid things about woman and their work and also about my work. I love the painting you made, I true homage!

  3. Your homage to the female artist really and truly brought mist to my eyes, Renilde. The palettes covering their faces is touching. Years ago I signed my artwork usiing my last name only, so no one could judge my works as being "painted by a woman". Now I am proud to be a woman who signs her paintings with my first name just as boldly as my last. xo Carole

  7. Oh you're so right with this homage, this is one of the reasons I started with the "great women" posts, because there are so many wonderful women artists who can't be enough honored!
    wonderful artwork and very suitable.
