Nat Love and Three Little Cowpokes Nat Love and Three Little Cowpokes grew out of my discovery of black cowboys while in graduate school in the 1970s. Dean Meeker, a University Wisconsin printmaking professor gave me a magazine photograph of Nat Love a black cowboy from the late 1800s. He said that he had the picture for several years with the intension of creating a print about black cowboys, but never found a solution to his aesthetic idea and maybe after research I would have use for it. Prior to that time I was unaware of the existence of black cowboys. I did research at the University of Wisconsin library and was surprised at the volume of information that I found but also like professor Meeker, I had no solution. So, I filed the materials away for use at a later date. In the late 1990s at a St Petersburg, Florida's used bookstore I found a magazine with an article with pictures of a black rodeo in Texas. In the pictures there was one of three little black children at the rodeo. This was the inspiration for the piece.

Since the early 1970s, my work has involved the creation of prints, drawings, mix-medias, and collages conceptually based on the artistic inspiration of Africa, the civil rights movement and of personal visions. In 1992, I placed importance on craftsmanship, experimented with form, explored the surreal, and began creating dynamic compositions by silk-screening large sheets of color and then invented images as I cut and assembled. I am delving into the essence of an in improvisational style that is spiritually alive, abstract in form and gives a new meaning to expression. The challenge here is to produce something significantly different from anything that I had done before by creating bold and colorful abstract silkscreen collages that suggest natural forms and initiates a passage from nature to abstraction."You and I," and "Flowering Tree" are good representatives of the abstract silkscreen collages. These collages represent one of the latest evolutions of a collage technique I learned years ago as a student at Florida A & M University. They are bold and colorful, and are derived from remembered experiences of growing up in rural Central Florida, the Florida's Gulf Coast, and the senses of life over the past 60 years. In them, life has burst its bounds, joy is taken in the icon of florescence, and color is used for its power over mood and space.
