My “Artist in Process” event at Allentown Museum

At this lovely event a few weeks ago I did some live drawing, spilled some tea on fashion industry bugbears and revealed a series of illustrations I had prepared entitled “Modern Day Suffragette” inspired by the museum’s current exhibit, “New Century, New Woman.” My aim was to demonstrate that suffrage continues as we fight against discriminations today that echo those of a century ago.
