World Women' Day..... Sister Mary Corita Kent

Illustration I found of Corita Kent.

 

 

           


Her art depicts love, peace, spirituality, urge for social justice and a hope. She gained fame for her vibrant serigraphs. To me what appeals is an outfit of a 'nun' creating such radical artworks!!! It changes one's approach to look at 'religion' and 'art', 'religious people' and 'artists' all at the same time.
And the colours....they are Amazing!

'May be did something go away ever so quietly when we weren't looking.'
