ABSTRACT
EXPRESSIVE CONTEMPORARY COMPOSITION
2023
ENTITLED; 'CASTRATED GENIUS- GWC'
MEDIA; ACRYLIC PAINT and GOLD METALLIC PAINT
EXPLANATION;
It is 'Black History Month' in America.
I have rendered this Contemporary, Abstract painting as a Tribute to George Washington Carver...a Prominent Black Scientist of the 20th Century who gave the world numerous products derived from Peanuts... and more. It is interesting to note that George initially entered college as an Art Student before turning his interest to Agricultural Studies.
He was born in Diamond, Missouri in the latter years of Slavery 1864. Though we know 'Emancipation' was not recognized in several states until years later...here then(between the lines below) is a detailed history of George Washington Carver's life, who died in Tuskegee, Alabama in 1943, that is not known;

From Captivity to Fame or The Life of George Washington Carver
Boston, Mass.: Meador Pub. Co., 1929.
Summary
Born just before the end of the Civil War, George Washington Carver (1864-1942) spent one year in slavery, but that year altered the course of his life. His father died shortly after Carver's birth, and his mother was kidnapped by slave raiders when he was only six weeks old, leaving him a nameless orphan.
When slave raiders kidnap Carver's mother at the beginning of Merritt's Life, they also take her infant son, but Moses Carver sends "out a rescuing party, which recovered him in exchange for a race horse valued at $300" (p. 13). When the party returns, Moses Carver and his wife have "faint hopes of raising the babe of six weeks old, because he was very sickly, and had a severe whooping cough," but they care for the child anyway (pp. 13-14). The Carvers wait until he is old enough to talk and work before naming him George Washington Carver "because of his faithful devotion to his work, and also his habitual truthfulness about everything" (p. 14).
As a boy, Carver spends most of his free time "roving the woods, and acquainting himself with every queer flower and peculiar weed" he finds, filling his pockets with insects and other interesting natural artifacts (p. 14). At night, after his work is completed, Carver teaches himself to read and write by memorizing "an old blue-back speller by the dim light of the burning logs in the fire place" (p. 16). When he finishes with the speller at age ten, Carver leaves his home and walks eight miles to the nearest town with a school in order to satisfy his "continuous desire of acquiring knowledge," spending "the first few nights in an old horse barn" until he makes "friends with a Mr. and Mrs. Watkins, who adopted him into their family" (pp. 18-19).
Carver's innovations earned him fame, but Merritt's Life maintains that "[h]is spirit and character are even more wonderful than his accomplishments" (p. 22).
__________________________________________________________________________
Therefore, because most of the aforementioned regarding Mr. Carver's accomplishments as a scientist and artist are, more or less, widely known...I have chosen to focus on his personal life(between the lines above)...which is not notable and, is seldom mentioned. Mr. Carver from an early age was the victim of castration...a practice that was not unknown here in America, during the 'era of slavery' for those young 'bright' male slaves who were chosen as 'house-servants'. Although George was not 'technically' a slave...he was reared in the home of, in and around, the family of his family's former owners.
And, I would imagine that on quiet nights, with no one there but him and God, George, as a grown accomplished man and having been castrated so young(10 or 11)... bemoaned what he had never known, nor would ever know; the passionate fulfillment of an intimate relationship, marriage, the gift and joy of children, the pride of grandchildren, etc.
And, I think it likely to imagine, at some time or the other, a tear, not filled with bitterness...but longing, indeed...fell.
The facts mentioned above can be obtained and supported by googling...George Washington Carver, scientist. Also googling...George Washington Carver, artist. Also googling...George Washington Carver, castrated.

Como não tenho condições de pagar um treinamento profissional, sou autodidata, mas tenho certeza de que todos concordarão que a 'Vida', por si só.. .é um ótimo professor.
Embora eu concorde que ainda tenho um longo caminho a percorrer, nos 6 anos em que sou membro do Artmajeur aprendi muito.
Já foi dito que tenho um 'bom olho' um elogio que considero muito caro. E, se você navegar na minha Galeria desde minhas criações anteriores até o presente, tenho certeza de que concordará que há, inegavelmente...crescimento artístico.
Sou cristão e muito inspirado pela consciência do presença de Deus em minha vida. Assim, todo o meu trabalho, de uma forma ou de outra...é inspirador.
Muito obrigado por ler minha biografia e espero que tenha gostado da minha galeria.
