“Oaktown Blues”

“One of several themes that seem to inhabit my art is nature. I am mesmerized by its infinity of colors, textures and mysteries. And on the Fifth Day illustrates this as it attempts to suggest the creatures of the sky and those of the seas. (In between these two worlds are us humans who, in reality, have in comparison, minor differences in color, shape, size, voice. And we spend countless hours adorning, modifying, sculpting, torturing ourselves – yet never reaching their level of exquisite grace and beauty!)” – Niambi Kee
