Though at first she found difficulty being hired as a female reporter, she took unusual risks to get the job. Nellie earned acclaim when she feigned insanity in order to expose the conditions of asylum patients at Blackwell’s Island in New York City. Her investigation resulted in several mental health care reforms. She continued her career as a stunt journalist, going undercover in various guises to expose corruption and injustice in jails, factories, and state legislature. Nellie achieved further fame after her newspaper sent her on a trip around the world in the fictional footsteps laid out in Jules Verne’s book, Around the World in Eighty Days. She did it in seventy-two, establishing a new world record. Nellie Bly was a spirited pioneer in her field, remembered most for launching a new kind of investigative journalism. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506636625782-SWKP5K4UO59W665QBIP9/Martha+Graham.jpeg Gallery II (Sold) - Dancer and Choreographer Martha Graham (1894-1991) was an American modern dancer and choreographer. Her style, the Graham technique, reshaped American dance and is still taught worldwide. In 1926, she established her own dance company in New York City and developed an innovative, non-traditional technique that spoke to more taboo forms of movement and emotional expression. She danced well into her 70s and choreographed until her death in 1991, leaving the dance world forever changed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506637089569-4FI0T85SRV4ABOA0EBKZ/Billie+Holiday+Painting.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Singer Billie Holiday (1915-1959) was an American jazz singer who was known for her unique vocal delivery and improvisational skills. The pain of her troubled past came through in her song and captivated audiences, and though she had no formal education to speak of, her soulful voice and her ability to boldly turn any material that she confronted into her own music made her a superstar of her time, overcoming the intense racial divides of the era. Today, she is remembered for her masterpieces, creativity and vivacity, and many of her songs are as well known today as they were decades ago. Tragically, she was never able to sing the pain away, and she lost her life to drug and alcohol addiction at age 44. Billie Holiday’s poignant voice is still considered to be one of the greatest jazz voices of all time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506637362577-FG68EZEC7FCTTV17BEMF/Mathilde+Kschessinska+Painting.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Dancer Mathilde Kschessinska (1872-1971) was a flamboyant and controversial ballerina of the Imperial Russian Ballet.

She was convicted of high treason after having been found distributing anti-war leaflets at the University of Munich with her brother Hans. As a result, they were both executed by guillotine. Following her death, a copy of the sixth leaflet was smuggled out of Germany through and used by the Allied Forces. In mid-1943, they dropped over Germany millions of propaganda copies of the tract, now retitled The Manifesto of the Students of Munich. “I know that life is a doorway to eternity, and yet my heart so often gets lost in petty anxieties. It forgets the great way home that lies before it.” – Sophie Scholl https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506638074594-JD7XCFS9PPDXH0SZTIMA/Sigrid+Undset+Painting.jpeg Gallery II (Sold) - Novelist, Nobel Prize Winner Sigrid Undset (1882 – 1949) was a Norwegian novelist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1928 for Kristin Lavransdatter, a trilogy about the life of a Scandinavian woman in the Middle Ages, from birth until death. When Joseph Stalin’s invasion of Finland began the Winter War in 1939, Sigrid donated her Nobel Prize to support the Finnish war effort she fled Norway for the United States because of her opposition Nazi occupation of Norway. Because she had strongly criticized Hitler since the early 1930s and her books were banned in German, she was forced to flee Norway for the United States when the Germans invaded her country. There, she tirelessly pleaded the case of occupied Norway and that of Europe’s Jews in writings, speeches, and interviews. Sigrid Undset’s face is portrayed on the 500 kroner note (Norwegian currency.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506638222959-7RMMA4TD9PI4SLDPYE1Y/Katherine+Johnson+Painting.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Scientist Katherine Johnson (born 1918), mathematician and computer scientist, was of NASA’s human ‘computers,’ who performed the complex calculations that enabled spacecraft to orbit Earth and to land on the moon.

During the Crimean War, she was put in charge of nursing allied and British soldiers in Turkey. As she walked around the wards at night, tending to the wounded, she became known as the “Lady with the Lamp.” Her efforts to formalize nursing education led her to establish the first scientifically based nursing school in 1860. She also helped set up training for midwives and nurses in workhouse infirmaries. Florence Nightengale is revered as the founder of modern nursing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506639008460-IRQ9I5EIL34R4SGJLSFE/Zora+Neale+Hurston+Painting.jpeg Gallery II (Sold) - Anthropologist, Author, and Civil Rights Activist Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960) was an African American anthropologist, author, and Civil Rights activist. She wrote many plays and books about the African American experience, becoming one of the most influential figures of the Harlem Renaissance, a cultural, social, and artistic explosion that took place in Harlem, New York, spanning the 1920s. “Their Eyes Were Watching God” is Zora’s most famous book. Though it was published in 1937, it is still widely read to this day and has come to be regarded as a very important work in both African-American literature and women’s literature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506639096919-KDVODS4B8NCJ9PSH3AFD/Madeleine+L%E2%80%99Engle+Painting.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Author, Poet Madeleine L’Engle (1918-2007) was an American author and poet best known for her young adult science-fiction, particularly the beloved book, A Wrinkle in Time and its sequels. She wrote over 60 books (many also for adults) that often reflected her faith and her strong interest in science. As an only child, Madeleine was raised by artistic parents in New York City, with plenty of freedom to use her imagination. Instead of her school work, she found that she would much rather be writing stories. In fact, she wrote her first book at age 5. She later joined the theatre, married an actor, moved to the countryside, and raised her children, running a general store, while always keeping up her lifelong discipline of writing and journaling. When she wrote A Wrinkle in Time, which went on to win the prestigious Newbery Medal, almost didn’t get published. It was rejected by 27 publishing agencies, and in her mid-forties, Madeleine was ready to retire. We are so glad she kept writing. To give an idea of her wonderful mind, here are a selection of wonderful quotes from Madeleine L’Engle: “The great thing about getting older is that you don’t lose all the other ages you’ve been.” “A book, too, can be a star, a living fire to lighten the darkness, leading out into the expanding universe.” “Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.” “The unending paradox is that we do learn through pain.” “Inspiration usually comes during work rather than before it.” “When we lose our myths we lose our place in the universe.” “But unless we are creators we are not fully alive. What do I mean by creators? Not only artists, whose acts of creation are the obvious ones of working with paint of clay or words. Creativity is a way of living life, no matter our vocation or how we earn our living. Creativity is not limited to the arts, or having some kind of important career.” “It’s a good thing to have all the props pulled out from under us occasionally. It gives us some sense of what is rock under our feet, and what is sand.” “Somethings have to be believed to be seen.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507057093301-MT9BBJIS144OWOCZLCLY/16425746_244922355953838_5200110168545933489_n.jpg Gallery II (Sold) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507076381441-UCSTY6DQI2FW9117N2B6/Helen+Keller%2C+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Author, Educator, Activist Helen Keller (1880-1968) was an American educator who overcame the double-adversity of being blind and deaf to become one of the 20th century’s leading humanitarians. She was an author, political activist, and lecturer. She was the first deaf-blind person to earn a bachelor of arts degree. Among other organizations, she co-founded the ACLU and Helen Keller International, whose mission is to save the sight and lives of the world’s most vulnerable people. But she is most remembered for her incredible determination and imagination that allowed her to move beyond the darkness of being blind and deaf and make the world a better one, especially for the disabled. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507125244589-IHVPUUVYH5WZPK1G64CF/Mother+Teresa%2C+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Nun and Humanitarian Mother Teresa (1910-1997) was an Albanian Roman-Catholic nun who committed her life to the service of the poor in Calcutta, India. In 1950, she founded of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity, a Roman Catholic congregation of women who have taken a vow to give “wholehearted free service to the poorest of the poor” and minister to (in Teresa’s own words) “the hungry, the naked, the homeless, the crippled, the blind, the lepers, all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, uncared for throughout society, people that have become a burden to the society and are shunned by everyone.” Considered one of the greatest humanitarians of the 20th century, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and canonized as Saint Teresa of Calcutta in 2016. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507150253575-W1EXOZPNY5RKZC27NRZJ/Princess+Leia%2C+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg Gallery II (Sold) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507621919921-JR2KKYLV6UH2JEMXCIEJ/Frida+Khalo%2C+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Painter Frida Kahlo (1907 – 1954) was a Mexican painter, known for her surreal and very personal works, most of them self-portraits.

She is perhaps the best known textile artist of the 20th century. Rebelling against her comfortable upbringing by choosing to become an artist, she attended the modernist Bauhaus school, where students lived with challenging and impoverished conditions. For a woman, there there were very few options for further study after the foundation level so she entered the woman’s weaving workshop, but she quickly embraced the process and materials of an art form that she would come to revolutionize. While at the Bauhaus, she met her husband, Josef Albers, who would become a master instructor at the school as well as one of the foremost artist/educators in the world. Anni eventually became the head of the Bauhaus weaving workshop herself. When the Nazi party pressured the school to close (which it did a year later) the couple were invited to move to America and teach at Black Mountain College in North Carolina.

The following are his words about his mother, a true Groundbreaking Girl.   Sandra Joyce Corson Lewis, born on Feb 13, 1944 in Skowhegan, Maine. As a teenager Sandra lost both of her parents, her father in a work accident and her mother from physical ailments. After that, she was raised from here by Marion Corson, her older sister. Sandra also has two younger sisters, Mary and Joan. While still in high school, Sandra knew that she wanted to be a missionary. While attending the University of Oklahoma for a degree in Linguistics, she met Ronald Kenneth Lewis, who had a similar dream for his life. Within six months of getting married, they found themselves on a boat heading to Papua New Guinea to serve on the mission field. In Papua New Guinea, they selected a remote tribe in the Sepik province, accessibly only by a 10 to 12 hour boat ride. It was here, that they adopted two children born in Tasmania, Australia: Matthew and Bronwyn. with their only access being by a 10 to 12-hour boat ride. One day in 1975, when the children were just toddlers, while Sandra was recovering from an illness, she awoke one day, unable to walk. This changed her life and the lives of her family as well. The family was forced to move back to the US, where she could receive medical advice and treatments. Even then, her main goal was to recover and return back to her mission in Papua New Guinea, and fulfill her purpose of being a missionary and translating the Bible into an unwritten tongue. The whole time her main goal was to recover and return back to Papua New Guinea. To complete her lifelong purpose of being a missionary and translating the bible into an unwritten tongue.   In 1978, while the family was still living in the states, a baby boy joined the Lewis family. In order to return to the mission field, Sandra would need to be walk on her own and prove that she could be self-sufficient. The doctors in charge of her care and rehabilitation spent just under six months helping her learn to walk again and simply gave up. Their consensus was that it would be impossible for her to ever walk again.   Still set on returning to the mission field and continuing the Bible translation for the Saniyo people, she did not accept this answer and continued on her own, teaching herself how to walk again. In 1980 Sandra defied the doctors by returning to Papua New Guinea with her family of five. In total, she spent 37 years in that country, completing the translation of the New Testament into the Saniyo languate In total she spent 37 years in Papua New Guinea, completing the translation of the New Testament into the Saniyo language.   In 2005 they celebrated a dedication ceremony and put 500 copies of the New Testament into the hands of the people. Some may see a life full of tragedy, grief, sorrow, and pain. Yes… there was much of all those things. I don’t see it that way at all. I see a strong woman, beautiful both inside and out, who would not take no for an answer when it came to following her dreams. Nothing short of death itself (which she came close to several times) could have stopped her from completing what she set out to do, to do what she knew must be done.   The level of determination, perseverance, and strength to even set out on an adventure of this magnitude is grand—bigger than the oceans crossed to get there, to come back physically damaged, to recover and return, across the vast distance of the oceans again, to finish what was started. She has taught me many lessons about life and how to live it: how to persevere through just about anything, to always land on my feet, regardless of what situation, environment, or country I get dropped into, to be patient, kind to others, to fight for and love the underdog, to not accept people or things at face value, to dig deeper, to find the true worth of a person.   She is the strongest woman that I know. The most determined. The most accomplished. What she has done is nothing short of a miracle… yes, because of her I believe in miracles.   With much love, Matthew Lewis (Her son that is both lucky and blessed to have her as a Mother!)   Commissions available on request.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1519946403498-1ENW0P77N0E6FG240LKU/26841364_388417001604372_160852967089573226_o.jpg Gallery II (Sold) - Singer and Songwriter RIP Delores O’Riordan.

Though she began her studies in spacial geometry, the death of her mother caused her to turn her course, and she moved toward art making as a therapeutic tool. The themes in her long career often connect to events in her troubled childhood and the exploration of femininity. Louise kept company with many well known artists of her day, but she was not affiliated with one specific movement, preferring to stay original, always outside of a label, continuing to make art till the end of her life—her last piece was finished a week before she died at age 98. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1547435642848-P2BNPIW9ZY6WATZ0DH92/Ruth+Bader+Ginsburg.jpeg Gallery II (Sold) - Supreme Court Justice 18x18”. $1300 Ruth Bader Ginsburg (b. 1933) is a U.S. Supreme Court justice, the second woman to be appointed to the position.

After a long career as a scientific writer and editor for the US Fish and Wildlife Service, while closely observing changes in nature, she wrote about the damaging effects of the pesticide DDT, a popular household chemical which was falsely advertised as “harmless.” In her book “Silent Spring,” she accused the chemical industry of spreading misinformation and public officials of uncritically accepting industry claims. Chemical companies sought to discredit her as a Communist or a hysterical woman, and yet the public tuned in, outraged. As her research was backed up by boards of scientists, the national pesticide policy was reversed and DDT was banned for agricultural uses. This spurred a movement which led to the creation of the US Environmental Protection Agency. “Silent Spring,” which was was released on September 27, 1962, became an iconic piece of literature, ultimately about the impact humans have on the delicate balance of nature—57 years later, it is a textbook for many of the same problems we are dealing with today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1594840069790-OJY02XB87OEGQT4EBIHT/Screen+Shot+2020-07-14+at+6.51.01+PM.png Gallery II (Sold) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1594842841056-4RF69JN3PWAMOZJAHP5A/Screen+Shot+2020-07-15+at+12.52.43+PM.png Gallery II (Sold) - Dancer Isadora Duncan (1877-1927) was a trailblazing American dancer and instructor whose emphasis on freer forms of movement was a precursor to modern dance techniques.

Over time she started her own line, using classic elements from historical costumes and traditional tartan patterns, and though she was constantly ridiculed by the British press, she managed to eventually become one of the top fashion designers in the world, even being given the royal honor of the title: Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE). Delightfully ironic, as she stayed true to her punk roots for her entire career. At 79, she continues to design and build her fashion empire involved in the theatrics of her shows and brand, and she manages to balance this with passionate climate activism, a message she weaves into her designs and products.

At one point, her sentimental work, mass-reproduced and sold cheaply in dime-stores, were among the most popular and recognized in the country. The problem was that her her husband, Walter Keane was taking all the credit. Walter was a great marketer, but he lied to the public so that her work would be passed off as his own. Caught in his deception, Margaret worked, at the height of (his) fame, up to 16 hours a day. This would become one of the greatest stories of art fraud in America, regardless of whether the work was critically acknowledged as serious art. When Margaret finally found the courage to leave Walter and branch off on her own, the word came out that she had been the artist behind these popular paintings all along. Walter denied the charges so a “paint-off” was called for in court (to which Walter found many excuses not to engage.) Eventually, it was established that Margaret had been the original painter all along. In her words, after being awarded 4 million in damages (including emotional distress): “I never saw a cent of it, but I won… It was a blessing just to sign my name.” Margaret was an overcomer and a survivor of an abusive relationship. In the end, truth won out, and she not only cleared her name, but she continued to make paintings, signed in her own name for the rest of her life. She’s 93 now. Bravo, Margaret! I made her eyes just a little larger on purpose to pay tribute to Margaret’s style. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1607265882664-DKR623IQPLRHXQIDVV8O/Screen+Shot+2020-12-06+at+6.39.59+AM.png Gallery II (Sold) - Frida Kahlo "I never paint dreams or nightmares.

St. Joan of Arc (1412- 1431) a national heroine of France, was a French peasant girl, who at 17 years old, believing that she was acting under divine guidance, led the French army in a momentous victory at Orléans that repulsed an English attempt to conquer France during the Hundred Years’ War. Captured a year afterward, Joan was burned to death by the English and their French collaborators as a heretic. However, she became the greatest national heroine of her compatriots, and in 1920, she was canonized as a saint. Nearly 600 years after hear death, she is still revered for her unwavering vision and courage and may be the most famous teenager in history. (With so many films and paintings of Joan to choose from, I decided to use Jean Seberg in the movie "Saint Joan" as reference for this piece.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1614541260489-8086L9SM2W8UJ04GZ49F/Tina+Turner.jpg Gallery II (Sold) Tina Turner (b 1939) is a singer, dancer, songwriter, and actress, known for her big soulful voice, stage presence, long legs, and for making one of the biggest comebacks in music history.

Very few women were creating this kind of work at her time, especially the nude figure. In her thirties, she separated from his studio and relationship to make work on her own, but though she was able to make a living and some reputation as an artist, she fell into despair and her story ended tragically in an asylum. However, since her death, her work has been praised (typical, right?) and she is known as one of the foremost sculptors of history. I painted her here as a somewhat modern art student, battling her brilliance and passion with her shadows as even today many young artists struggle in the same way. (Not just young ones.

Through six decades devoted to art, she continually explored innovative approaches to painting and collage. Lee mostly became known because of her marriage to the gifted, troubled painter Jackson Pollock, but she was an established abstract artist well before she met him. Her engagement in the New York art scene and her long education of art and its history were important to the nourishment of Pollock’s career. They painted side by side in their country home, but after her husband was killed in an automobile accident, Lee devoted the rest of her life to promoting his art and legacy as well as exploring her own abstract painting. Shortly after her own death, she was given a retrospective show at the Museum of Modern Art, an honor bestowed on a small handful of women artists, even to this day. Today her work is considered some of the most significant in the Abstract Expressionist movement.* *Abstract Expressionism is important because it was the first specifically American movement to achieve international influence and put New York City at the center of the western art world, a role formerly filled by Paris.

She was the first graduate of Howard University’s School of Fine Arts, after which she spent her life teaching middle school. Though she had painted throughout her life, taking graduate classes at nights, and using art as a communication tool in the classroom, it wasn’t until she retired at age 68 that she began another chapter of her life as an acclaimed professional artist. After a severe attack of arthritis that nearly left her paralyzed, she restored her health and creativity by painting in a new style: “I decided to try to paint something different from anything I’ d ever done—different from anything I’ d ever seen. I thought to myself, ‘That must be accomplished.”’ With the tree and garden outside her room window as inspiration, Alma created a mosaic-like style, which would become her signature: small, rectangular shapes of bright, intense colors merged together in curves, and circles. For the rest of her life, till she died at 86, she continued to paint, showing her work in many acclaimed galleries and shows. In 1972, at the age of 80, was was the first black woman to ever be given a solo exhibition at New York’s Whitney Museum of American Art. “People come to me and say, ‘Tell me how to paint.’ I say, ‘I can’ t.

She became the first black athlete to break through the color line of international tennis. In 1956, she became the first person of color to win a Gram Slam title. The following year, she won both Wimbledon and the US Nationals, and won both again the following year. In all, she won 11 Grand Slam tournaments, including six doubles titles, In the early 1960s she also became the first black player to compete on the women’s professional golf tour. At a time when racism and prejudice were widespread in sports and in society, Gibson was often compared to Jackie Robinson. It was enormously difficult to play in professional sports if you were black, let alone a woman, but she she made history by competing not only in tennis but in the golf circuit as well.”I am honored to have followed in such great footsteps,” wrote Venus Williams. “Her accomplishments set the stage for my success, and through players like myself and Serena and many others to come, her legacy will live on.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507088171876-88S6U0OO5PV4ANM9K8D8/Emma-Lazarus.jpg MEDIUM PORTRAITS - Poet Emma Lazarus (1849-1887) was an American poet. One of the first successful Jewish American authors, Lazarus was part of the late nineteenth century New York literary elite, but also became a passionate advocate for Jewish immigrants and refugees. Among other things, she helped establish the Hebrew Technical Institute in New York, which provided vocational training so that the destitute could learn to support themselves. She is most remembered for her poem “The New Colossus,” which is inscribed on the pedestal of the statue of liberty, welcoming incoming immigrants as they arrived in New York Harbor with these powerful words, which have become a lasting, iconic part of the American fabric: “Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. “Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” Emma Lazarus was only 37 when she was commissioned by a group of NY writers to write the poem “The New Colossus,” which would, in turn, raise money for the pedestal for the Statue of Liberty (the statue was a gift from the French, though the US was required to buy the pedestal.) The inscription of the poem ultimately changed the meaning of the statue, making Lady Liberty a beacon of hope to the “huddled masses” looking for a better life within the freedoms America offered. But the statue was originally a token of the French people to celebrate republican (anti-monarchy) government as established in the American and French Revolutions. Emma died without public notice one year after she wrote the poem. A century and a later, her words are considered one of the most beloved and important American poems. So, writer friends, be mindful of your opportunities to write while you are alive. You never know how it will affect the world and the generations to come. That part is out of your hands. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507088369018-KK5Z6EO6IY3XW0CXQMSA/Susan+B.+Anthony%2C+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg MEDIUM PORTRAITS - Social Reformer and Activist Susan B.

She studied art in a art college in Pennsylvania, but dropped out because she found the studies too limiting for women. On a trip to Paris, she discovered the work of Edgar Degas, which inspired her to move to Paris and copy masterpieces at the Louvre. Eventually, one of her paintings was accepted at the Salon, which was THE place to exhibit art in Paris at the time. After a time, she joined the avant-garde Impressionist painters and began to enjoy a new success in their group. When she returned home, she was influential in bringing Impressionist art to the American scene. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507624112953-G80CH0TAUXONSJU7RGD8/Malala%2C+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg MEDIUM PORTRAITS - Human Rights Activist, Humanitarian, Student Malala Yousafzai (born 1997) is a Pakistani activist for female and child education and the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate.

Drawing on spiritual themes and transcendental in her approach to painting, her work covers six decades, and was largely hidden for a long time after she died. She left behind more than 1,000 works that she had kept private. She believed that the world “was not ready for her art,” so she asked that the pieces remain unseen for another two decades. Her large bright paintings have found an enthusiastic new audience this year through the a retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum in NYC (she had envisioned her artwork would one day be showcased in a large circular building with a spiral staircase long before the museum was even built)...it turns out that NOW the right time.

There are the lover and the beloved, but these two come from different countries. Often the beloved is only a stimulus for all the stored-up love which had lain quiet within the lover for a long time hitherto. And somehow every lover knows this. He feels in his soul that his love is a solitary thing. He comes to know a new, strange loneliness and it is this knowledge which makes him suffer. So there is only one thing for the lover to do. He must house his love within himself as best he can; he must create for himself a whole new inward world — a world intense and strange, complete in himself. Let it be added here that this lover about whom we speak need not necessarily be a young man saving for a wedding ring — this lover can be man, woman, child, or indeed any human creature on this earth." —Carson McCullers (1917-1967) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1634512270359-CHZX84H1P9HFUWFQVRMS/image-asset.png MEDIUM PORTRAITS - JANIS JOPLIN 11X14” OIL ON CANVAS, 2020 $795 "If I hold back, I'm no good.

Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and a billion in translation. Classic who-dun-its with last minute revelations, often centering around poison in high society, brought her the reputation as the “Queen of Crime and Mystery.,” Her personal life was also mystery: especially when she disappeared for a time after finding her husband wanted to leave her for another. Her disappearance caused a sensation: over 1,000 police officers, 15,000 volunteers and several planes scoured the area where her car was found. The story was front-page news not only in Britain but in newspapers around the world. Ten days later she was found resting quietly at a hotel in the north of England where she had registered as Mrs Teresa Neele – the surname of her husband's lover. Two doctors diagnosed her as suffering from amnesia, but the mystery was never fully solved because she never spoke of it herself. After the divorce, she remarried a young archaeologist, 13 years her junior. She said at one point: "An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets, the more interested he is in her!"

She made two shuttle flights and committed her life to educating young people and encouraging them to explore careers in science. “We have to make science cool again,” she said. And indeed she did, as she became a role model for young people, especially girls, so often left out of the sciences, for the next generations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506631688448-JRO4A56DP6NPJOVVFZ7H/Diane+Arbus+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Photographer Diane Arbus (1923-1971) was an American photographer, who is best known for her black-and-white portraits of marginalized people, often thought as bizarre or unattractive by mainstream society. Diane and her husband were a successful team in fashion photography before she branched out on her own, wandering around the city, photographing the interesting New Yorkers she found on the fringes. She went to great lengths to meet her subjects and get the shot thats that she wanted, and her hard work paid off. She became admired as an artist as well as a photographer as she exhibited her work at the Museum of Modern Art and others. Diane Arbus is considered the most important female photographer of her generation and her work remains as groundbreaking and beloved today as it was then. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506636900008-SYBPA09HFQN7M4K1PYQR/Coretta+Scott+King.jpeg SMALL PORTRAITS - Civil Rights Activist Coretta Scott King (1927-2006) was an important Civil Rights activist and the wife/widow of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. After his death, she continued to eloquently advocate for non-violence and equal rights for all people, regardless of race or gender. She has been called the First Lady of Civil Rights. You can hear some of her own powerful words on this podcast. Artist’s note: After the emboldened white supremacist march and attack over the weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia, I want to make a statement against racism. But Coretta’s words speak stronger than mine could. We can’t just rest on our laurels and think everything should be fine because others have fought the fight before us….It’s our generation’s responsibility to fight against hatred and bigotry too. Obviously, these things don’t just go away. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506636999766-ZE3IZ3VEM6MTZK1JOTEU/Julia+Morgan+Painting.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Architect Julia Morgan (1872-1957) America’s first truly independent female architect, left a legacy of over 700 buildings, many of which are now designated landmarks, in cities throughout California, as well as in Hawaii, Utah, and Illinois, her most famous being Hearst Castle in San Simeon, California. But her works were not limited to lavish buildings. As well as designing for the wealthy, she worked with many different clients in her her varied career. She designed several centers for the YWCA as well as private clubs and churches. One of the hallmarks of her varied career is that she worked with many different clients, not just the wealthy. She was willing to work with moderate budgets , creating less expensive family homes with open areas and large windows to give the impression of more space, using indigenous materials (progressive for her day) and changing the scale of her designs to work with uneven topography. She tried to give a careful solution to all of her clients, whether they were wealthy or not. In her way, she became an equal in her field (to the men who were dominating it so far) by treating all her clients equally. And with that attitude, she was able to leave an unforgettable mark. “My buildings will be my legacy… they will speak for me long after I’m gone.” —Julia Morgan https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506637736356-9X6YD6XXGF464ISNA93H/Lucy+Maud+Montgomery+Painting.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Novelist Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874—1942) was a Canadian novelist, arguably Canada’s most widely read author. Her first novel, Anne of Green Gables (published in 1908), became an instant bestseller and has remained in print for more than a century, making the plucky character of Anne Shirley a mythic icon for imaginative, intelligent young girls all over the world. The Anne of Green Gables series has been translated into at least 36 languages as well as braille, not to mention television and film adaptations. LM Montgomery was financially successful as a writer in her own right, but managed all this while being carrying out the duties expected of a minster’s wife and raising three boys. Montgomery went on to publish 20 novels as well as 530 short stories, 500 poems, and 30 essays. She is revered not only for her charming Anne character, but for putting the smaller parts of Canada on the literary map, boosting interest and tourism for those areas of the country. In 1935, Maud was awarded the esteemed honor of officer of the Order of the British Empire. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506637953265-KJJB0E6QXJ9P5DMP7ITR/Jane+Austen.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Writer and Novelist Jane Austen (1775 – 1817) was an English novelist, who’s work depicted middle class British life at the beginning of the 19th century. Her strong-willed and independent female characters have to navigate a world in which they are expected to marry in order to have a place in respectable society. Though her novels were not very popular when Jane was alive, they have become timeless classics, rarely out of print for the last 200 years. And though she only published six books, she is considered one of the most influential novelists of all time.

Her experience greatly influenced a life of advocacy for many civil rights causes including the anti war movement, Black equality, reparations for Japanese-American internees, and political prisoners. She was a passionate advocate for peace into her old age. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506638651038-0XCYP42UQMQGGMRFVOG3/Barbara+Hepworth+Painting.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Artist Dame Jocelyn Barbara Hepworth ( 1903 – 1975) was an English sculptor, one of the few female sculptors of her era. She was also revolutionary in her style as she carved massive Modernist sculptures by hand. She was also the mother of four….three of them, triplets. In her lifetime, she did achieve some international success, but she was often thought of as provincial because she was also a mother and lacked the freedom of her contemporaries. Still, the focus of her life and her attention to her children in each season caused her work to be extra special, which aficionados especially appreciate now. Artist’s note: I was drawn to paint Barbara Hepworth after receiving an email from my husband’s first girlfriend (a friend of mine too) in which she remembered visiting the Barbara Hepworth house in St. Ives, Cornwall, when they were art students. I remembered visiting it too with him (over 20 years later) when we visited St. Ives with my traveling parents. I love when I paint a person, and learn about about her, and hers is just the message I need to hear. Granted, this is often the case when I paint artists and writers…but her story came to me in a time when I was really struggling with the idea of trying to be an artist and support my family as a single mother. I was trapped in the story that I couldn’t do it all. So finding out that this woman whom I already admired (I’ve touched her work in its natural habitat!) also had TRIPLETS (along with a first child from another marriage) was a kiss of life to a hurting soul. Granted, she was a genius, but I am inspired. Yes, please, Ms. Hepworth, I’d love you to be my mentor! <3 “I found one had to do some work every day, even at midnight, because either you’re professional or you’re not.”—Barbara Hepworth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506639166941-PPVU5H5O1GK92IOEABH0/Rosalind+Franklin+Painting.jpeg SMALL PORTRAITS - Scientist, Chemist Rosalind Franklin (1920 – 1958) was an English chemist and X-ray crystallographer whose work provided key insights into DNA structure. Artists note: The day I painted Rosalind was a very important day to our family, the third anniversary of the accident that led to my husband’s death as well as the 9th month anniversary since the day he died. I wanted to paint someone in tribute to him. Whenever I’d see a photo of Rosalind Franklin, I thought she looked a lot like Vernon in the face…and they were both British. I love the thoughtful look on her face…even in photographs, she comes across (to me) as very intelligent. He was the same way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506639502294-BE1LEZDVYUVKS4Z2HYQ4/Maria+Tallchief+Painting.jpeg SMALL PORTRAITS - Dancer Maria Tallchief (1925-2013) was a Native American ballerina.

When she was older, she turned to teaching, founding and becoming artistic director of the Chicago City Ballet. She was widely praised through her life for her precision and musicality, something that she always attributed to her Osage heritage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506639760452-NCDVGWRP045U8R3UR6R5/Septima+Poinsette+Clark+Painting.jpeg SMALL PORTRAITS - Educator, Civil Rights Activist  Septima Poinsette Clark (1893-1987) was an African-American teacher and civil rights activist who set up citizenship schools for disenfranchised African Americans in the 1950s and 60s. Here, they were taught to read and write so they could pass the literacy tests required by southern states to register to vote. The citizenship schools began to spread through the south, and were adopted by Martin Luther King Jr’s Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1961. As a result, many began to take control of their lives and discover their full rights as citizens. Septima’s 40 years of teaching experience and her own struggles and triumphs of finding work as a black teacher in the south equipped her to design an education program that changed the course of history…and empowered many African Americans to take control of their lives and discover their full rights as citizens. She became known as the “Queen mother” or “Grandmother” of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1506632049498-DUTF62J1T7VM9BRTTXLS/Princess+Diana+Painting+Groundbreaking+Girls.jpeg SMALL PORTRAITS - Princess Princess Diana Spencer (1961-1997) was married to Charles, the Prince of Wales, (who is eldest child and heir apparent to the Queen of England.) She became known as the “People’s Princess” because of the way she chose to connect with everyday people in a way that the aristocracy had not yet done. Diana got involved in charity work and went so far as to minister to AIDS victims in Africa, touching them and loving them in a time when people were still not sure the disease was not airborne or touch-contagious. She also became president of Great Ormand Street Hospital for children in London. A wonderful humanitarian that broke from royal tradition, she was also a mother of two boys. In the end, she was killed in a car crash in Paris in 1997, leaving the world heartbroken and without an famous, yet compassionate role model. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1507089612059-Z9O5RU0BFCHFFQJ894MG/Vijaya+Lakshmi+Pandit+Painter.jpeg SMALL PORTRAITS - Diplomat Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit (1990-1990) was an Indian diplomat and the first woman to serve as president of the UN General Assembly. “Education is not merely a means for earning a living or an instrument for the acquisition of wealth.

She was the first great recording star of gospel music and among the first gospel musicians to appeal to rhythm-and-blues and rock-and-roll audiences, later being referred to as "the original soul sister" and "the Godmother of rock and roll". She was among the first popular recording artists to use heavy distortion on her electric guitar, heralding the rise of electric blues. Through the 1940s, she was the hottest act on stage with a guitar. She became a model for Little Richard, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis. Johnny Cash called her his favorite singer and biggest inspiration and Chuck Berry said his career was “one long Sister Rosetta Tharpe impersonation.” Her guitar technique also had a profound influence on the development of British blues in the 1960s (in particular, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Keith Richards.) She is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century—the founding mother who gave rock’s founding fathers the idea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1549251712064-KUHHTA3GRHZ61HIUKM1T/Sadie%2BMcCallum.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Inventor and Advocate Sadie McCallum (born 2006) is an inventor and advocate.

In 2004 she became the first woman to be awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize, the highest honor of her field. In the early days of her career, she became known as a “paper architect,” meaning her designs were too avant-garde to move beyond the sketch phase and actually be built. This impression of her was heightened when her beautifully rendered designs—often in the form of exquisitely detailed colored paintings—were exhibited as works of art in major museums. Her major built works include the London’s Millennium Dome, the London Aquatics Centre (built for the 2012 Olympics) Michigan State University's Broad Art Museum in the US, the MAXXI Museum in Rome, and the Beijing Daxing International Airport in China. She was referred to as the "Queen of the curve", who "liberated architectural geometry, giving it a whole new expressive identity". https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1594842456222-513UP3UQK7F3PB67X6X0/Screen+Shot+2020-07-15+at+12.46.31+PM.png SMALL PORTRAITS - Social Worker, Rescuer Irena Sendler (1910-2008) was a Polish social worker who rescued 2500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto and placed them in convents and with non-Jewish families.

The 20th child of sharecroppers, Fannie grew up in poverty, and at six, joined her family picking cotton; at twelve, she left school in order to work. In 1961, Hamer received a hysterectomy by a white doctor without her consent while undergoing surgery to remove a tumor. Such forced sterilization of Black women, as a way to reduce the population, was widespread practice in Mississippi. (Afterward, Fannie and her husband adopted children from other poor families.) ⭐️Her civil rights activism began in 1962, when she volunteered to challenge voter registration procedures that excluded African Americans. Fired from her job of 18 years for attempting to register to vote (she failed a literacy test), she became a field secretary for the SNCC (Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee). In 1963, after successfully registering to vote, Hamer and several other black women were arrested for sitting in a “Whites-only” bus station restaurant in Charleston, South Carolina. At the jailhouse, she and several of the women were brutally beaten, leaving Hamer with lifelong injuries from a blood clot in her eye, kidney damage, and leg damage. ⭐️She later helped and encouraged thousands of African-Americans in Mississippi to become registered voters and helped hundreds of disenfranchised people in her area through her work in programs like the Freedom Farm Cooperative. In 1964 Hamer helped organize Freedom Summer, which brought hundreds of college students, Black and White, to help with African American voter registration in the segregated South. ⭐️The same year, she announced her candidacy for the Mississippi House of Representatives but was barred from the ballot. She brought the civil rights struggle in Mississippi to the attention of the entire nation during a televised session at the convention, which was unsuccessfully undermined by President Johnson. Along with her political activism, Hamer worked to help the poor and families in need in her Mississippi community. She also set up organizations to increase business opportunities for minorities and to provide childcare and other family services. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1594877317492-UGAI4ZDT55Y6UGFT1TH1/Screen+Shot+2020-07-15+at+10.27.44+PM.png SMALL PORTRAITS - Activst ⭐️ Dr. Angela Davis (1944-) is an activist, professor, and writer who has advocated for social change since the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s.

Though she was poised for a life as a professional violinist, tendinitis in her bow arm (caused by childhood malnutrition) forced her to abandon the instrument. After her Jewish family fled Russia to live in America, Clara met another immigrant, Léon Theremin, who had invented the self-named theremin. With her refined violin skills, she became the most prominent theremin player, performing widely, bringing attention to the strange instrument, and helping Leon improve his invention. While the theremin is mostly known for spooky sounds used in vintage science fiction movies, under Clara’s control, it sounded like a classical stringed instrument or even a singing voice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59c2f8308fd4d2a318db1633/1563841122853-MLR6HQX1JI0UCFQR27U4/Mary+Anning+GroundbreakingGirls.jpg SMALL PORTRAITS - Paleontologist Mary Anning (1799 – 1847) was a fossil collector and paleontologist from Lyme Regis, Dorset in Southwest England, who became known around the world for important finds she made in marine fossil beds in the cliffs along the Jurassic Coastline.
