Royalty (La Corona)

Art Series: Black Kings

Acrylic on Paper 38.6 x 48.8 x 3.0 cm

——————-

ROYALTY -- and the symbolism thereof; what better way to capture the essence of what that means than a crown.
The muted, mono/duo tone colours selected by Paulie X for this piece, are deliberate.

The Gold crown is set against a dark, black background, completely absorbing and surrounding the ornate headpiece, but also highlighting it even more.

BLACK

'Royalty' --- as an ode to the past, explores the many forgotten crowns of blackness, lost in blackness.
Kings, Queens, Princes, Princesses of Kingdoms and Queendoms long lost and forgotten, pillaged and impoverished due to the unfortunate influences of slavery and colonialism over centuries.

'Royalty' --- as a love letter for the now... as hope for the future, is the crown-piece of Paulie's Art series 'Black Kings', and celebrates the many Black Men and Women shining their lights brighter, no matter what.

Sir Lewis Hamilton, John Boyega, Damson Idriss, Idris Elba, Venus and Serena Williams, Oprah Winfrey, Meghan Markle.
Powerful, Poised, Regal. Always.

Flourishing, come what may... & doing it in classy style!


BLACK KINGS ...& QUEENS!
