About The Artwork

Hazel Dorothy Scott (June 11, 1920 – October 2, 1981) was a Trinidad-born American jazz and classical pianist and singer. She was an outspoken critic of racial discrimination and segregation. She used her influence to improve the representation of Black Americans in film. Born in Port of Spain, Scott moved to New York City with her mother at the age of four. Scott was a child musical prodigy, receiving scholarships to study at the Juilliard School when she was eight. In her teens, she performed at Café Society while still at school.[2] She also performed on the radio. She was active as a jazz singer throughout the 1930s and 1940s. In 1950, she became the first black American to host her own TV show

Jennylynd James is a “Renaissance” woman: an artist, writer, and Classical music singer with a long work history as a food scientist! Jennylynd earned a Ph.D. in Food Science at McGill University, and worked for food companies in the United States, Ireland, Canada, and the Caribbean. Her series of travel memoirs recount her many adventures in relocation. Jennylynd James discovered a hidden talent for drawing and painting while working as an entrepreneur in the Republic of Ireland. Her artsy flair in running a food business took an interesting turn when in an amateur art class the instructor found Jennylynd excelled in portraiture and sketching. She uses the vivid colours of her heritage to influence her work. Her artwork is held in collections in Mexico, Canada, the United States, the Caribbean and the UK.
