SpiriCulArts – Spiritual, Cultural & Artistic
‘ Face It’ by Imani c 1998 All Rights Reserved
Once upon a time, there was a busy mother of three who juggled so many things that she just sparked with creativity. She wrote poetry, ran creative writing classes, co-edited two poetry anthologies, designed book covers, established a support group for Rastafarian women and even had her own radio show on a London community station as well as looking after three small but growing individuals. She also developed a range of artworks using HB pencils and metallic ink pens and participated in several art exhibitions in London.
And yes, this was me.
I chose the name ‘SpiriCulArts’ as I create each picture to celebrate my spirituality and cultural influences. This picture is called ‘Face It’ which was created using metallic purple and silver ink pens on green neon card. I had no idea of how this would turn out as all my works in ink start from a single doodle, this one started in the top left hand corner whilst I was watching telly.

Now for this picture ‘Whatdoyousee’ I worked on black card using bronze, silver, pink and blue metallic pens. The whole process of starting a picture with a random shape and then experimenting with different effects is really calming. I love creating images of movement and flow.
