My artwork "Suffragettes" was juried into UniteWomen.org's exhibit "Women's Rights: An Artist's Perspective".  The artwork can be purchased by clicking on the link below.
I created this artwork after a lot of research on specific women, Harriett Tubman, Cady Stanton and Myrna Loy.  Myrna Loy was the women I knew absolutely nothing about and was surprised to learn what a prolific feminist writer she was of her day! Then while visiting the L. A. County Museum one day I looked up and hanging on the wall was one of the very few art pieces she ever created.  Made me proud! First, that I had found her on my own through research and secondly to see her artwork hanging in such a wonderful and important museum.
