@ArtistX I was thinking about your hands sketches today because of the artist Dare Coulter whose work is in the new AN AMERICAN STORY picture book for kids. She also a sculptor, and part of what she did in her illustrations for the book is photograph the sculptures of hands that she'd made, and then paint the sculptures.

#Teachers, check this wonderful read-aloud of the new picture book from #KwameAlexander and debut #kidlit illustrator #DareCoulter: AN AMERICAN STORY. From #JudyBlume's own #bookstore in Key West! Here's hoping this book leads to open, fearless classroom discussions on this central part of the American story -- slavery & Black resilience in the face of it.
