Artist Statement

             

Ali Civil Rights (the 1960’s)  

I was born and raised in Louisville Kentucky. I graduated from Central High School in 1971. My first memory as an artist, I was nearly 5 years old. Cowboys and Native Americans was my drawing theme. I used a brown paper bag from the grocery store, as my drawing surface. Over the years I develop a passion for drawing portraits. I find it challenging to capture the uniqueness and depth of one’s individual face.

 I received a full scholarship to attend the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, from 1971 to 1975, finishing with a B.F.A. degree. During my formable years at SAIC, I studied drawing and painting under Robert Levindalh, Paula Gerald, Besty Rubrecht and Roxie Tremonto. They were all great inspirations to me.

 I viewed my art as both traditional and non-traditional portraits. Both portraitures are challenging and rewarding. The non-traditional portraits are inspirational, as I blend creative use of lines, shapes and silhouette into realistic portraitures. I am also a self-taught muralist. I have created and design several murals in the Chicago Public School system. I have worked primarily with student of various ethnic backgrounds to assist in painting these murals to help promote diversity and cultural awareness within their educational environment.
